Idea Factory and Compile Heart have announced Neptunia: Unlimited <\/strong>(Japanese: \u8d85\u65b0\u6642\u7a7a\u30b2\u30a4\u30e0 \u30cd\u30d7\u30c6\u30e5\u30fc\u30cc\u221e; official English title TBD) the newest mainline installment in the Hyperdimension Neptunia franchise, set to release on August 27 for Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4. The long-awaited title, launching more than 10 years after the latest mainline entry in the RPG series, Megadimension Neptunia VII, has been revealed via a special livestream on the Compile Heart Official YouTube Channel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Neptunia<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Aside from classic characters like Neptune (Purple Heart), Blanc (White Heart), Vert (Green Heart), and Noir (Black Heart), the title introduces some brand-new characters into its roster. This includes Rogue (Red Heart), the timid new CPU (Console Patron Unit) of Sweenia, and her friend Ciel (Blue Heart), the social media-savvy CPU of Lastation. Furthermore, for the first time ever, the series will introduce a dual CPU, Anna and Lotte, Guardian Goddesses of Leanbox who fuse into Eclipse Heart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Neptunia<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The story will seemingly take place in a brand-new timeline, in which Neptune and her comrades will have to face the \u201ctrue end,\u201d and stand against the Apocalypse threatening to destroy the world over and over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Neptunia<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Apparently, the gameplay of Neptunia: Unlimited will be heavily centered around flying, with many of the gimmicks and combat happening in mid-air. Furthermore, the \u201cApocalypse Battle\u201d mode (unofficial translation) invites all of the goddesses to face off against a colossal Apocalypse Boss. By skillfully utilizing Apocalypse Counter Skills, you\u2019ll be able to block the hard-hitting special attacks expelled by the boss, and use that power to strike back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
