Cue highly dramatic sound effect
While we have known that Hyperdimension Neptunia Mk.2, the second game in Compile Heart’s Neptune series would be released on the Playstation 3 internationally next month, the actual date was left open. Nippon Ichi Software America today filled in that missing piece of information, announcing that the game would be released on the 28th February 2012 in the North American market and the 24th February 2012 in the European market.
