Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA F 2nd hits PS3 and PS Vita this week

Cult rhythm game sequel finally touches down on Western shores

The time has come! The release of Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA F 2nd is nearly here! Over the past year, we here at SEGA have travelled across the world to bring Project DIVA to you all. I have witnessed the unifying power of Miku firsthand and how her music and her games bring people together with her message of universal positivity. I’ve met some of the most wonderful people through this project, and for that I thank you all.

For you long-time fans, this is the best Project DIVA release yet. For those of you who first played Project DIVA last year with our first international release, you are in for a real treat discovering the songs that made Miku what she is today. And with the sequel launching this Friday, you’ll finally get to experience English subtitles on the songs for the very first time.

For those of you who have yet to experience Miku and Project DIVA, now is the time to jump on board. With 40 songs that mix both new and classic hits, I promise you are in for an unforgettable experience as you discover the incredible world of Miku.

If you are a returning fan, the controls and game mechanics have seen enhancements and improvements over the previous game. There are now Double Stars and Linked Stars, and you now have the option to use the analogue sticks instead of the touchscreen on the PlayStation Vita version, should you prefer.

We are also including Cross-Save for the mega fans out there who want to own the game on both PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita. This will allow you to sync your save data between versions, allowing you to shoot for perfect scores both at home and on the go.

Edit Mode has seen very important improvements as well. First, we have included sample Edits to help you learn the ins-and-outs of Edit creation. Second, you are able to import any Edits created in the first Project DIVA F. There have been updates to the creation interface, such as allowing you to preview the song while adjusting target positions, as well as letting you hear the button sounds when previewing so you can line up the sound track better. I’m really looking forward to all the Edits you all create! Edit Mode is your chance to give back to the community!

We have one last feature we have not yet revealed: Japanese save data importing. This is a special feature to all you fans who not only import the Japanese version, but then turn around and buy our English version to support our efforts. Using this feature, the English version of Project DIVA F 2nd will read the Cross-Save data from the Japanese version, and merge that progress with your English process. It even works across platforms, so if you have a Japanese PlayStation 3 version, you can still import into your English PlayStation Vita version! Note though that this is a one-time, one-direction feature.

The option is on the title screen, so you can’t miss it. Give it a try and let us know what you think!

And as I already told you in my last blog post, we have six months of post-launch downloadable content in the pipeline. Again, to everyone who has supported us, thank you! Keep tapping those buttons and we will see you next time!
