Idea Factory has announced that the Xbox Series X/S version of Neptunia Game Maker R:Evolution will launch this October.
The launch will include a Digital Deluxe Edition that includes a swimsuit costume set, a digital art book, and digital soundtrack. The swimsuit cosmetics are for Older Neptune, Neptune, Pippih, Jagaa, Reedio, Noire, Blanc, Vert, Nepgear, Uni, Rom, and Ram.
Neptunia Game Maker R:Evolution was previously released on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5 in English in May. The Xbox version and its 2024 release window were also announced that month. The game first debuted in Japan in August 2023.
The action RPG is a spin-off of Compile Heart‘s Hyperdimension Neptunia RPG series, which began in 2010 and has inspired a 2013 TV anime plus a few OVAs. Older Neptune is the main protagonist here, and the premise involves growing and managing a game company. Motorcycle-riding and a “revamped battle system” are some of the highlighted features, along with the ability to boost party stats with “the help of creating games through disc development.”
The official premise is:
In a world of powerful rival Game Makers…
Within the Game Maker world, in order to acquire Shares, Game Makers have started to wage a battle for supremacy.
And so, a new Game Maker steps into the fray, attempting to endure the battle for survival in Gamindustri.
