News: Idea Factory International reveals details about Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth1 hitting the PS Vita this summer.

Idea Factory International has revealed that Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth1 is coming to the PS Vita as a physical retail product as well as a digital download in North America. For the European market it will be available in digital form only. Both releases are scheduled for later this year

Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth1 is a remake of Hyperdimension Neptunia, which was previously released for the PS3 in 2011. Renewed event conversations, graphics and newly added game mechanics should entertain fans who have already played the PS3 version as well as newcomers to the series. Some of the key features and differences from the PS3 version include:

An overhauled battle system - Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth1 takes the original game and equips it with the battle system of Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory. This gives the player a more in-depth gaming experience.

New scenario, new ending - The main story and event scenes are renewed from the PS3 version. The core storyline will remain mostly the same, but the conversations between characters are all new. A new ending has been added as well. This will allow players returning from the PS3 version to enjoy the game anew.

New “Remake System” - A new system has been added to Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth1: the “Remake System.” It lets players customize and make changes to the game system itself by obtaining “Plans.”

Receive Blank Discs to craft your own Game Disc - You can create unique equippable items by burning Idea Chips (abilities) onto blank discs. Depending on the Idea Chips used, a Godly Game may result, which will grant you an additional ability.

DLC brings more playable characters and more - Additional characters will be playable through DLC; players can increase the level cap to 999; and additional monsters, quests and dungeons will be available.
