Compile Heart has shared the opening movie for Moero Crystal Hyper, which is due out on the Japanese Switch eShop on September 5. We have it below.

According to an eShop listing, Moero Crystal Hyper is bringing Moero Crystal Hyper to Switch. A digital release is planned for September 5 in Japan. Pricing is set at 4,000, though it can be pre-loaded for 2,800 yen.

Moero Crystal, a dungeon-crawling RPG, was originally made for the PS Vita back in 2015. It never launched in the west, but given what we saw with Moero Chronicle Hyper, Idea Factory could be making an announcement soon.

Here’s a trailer for the PS Vita version:

Have you ever wanted Nintendo, Sony, Microsoft, and SEGA to be personified as anime girls? If for some bizarre reason you answer “yes,” then the Neptunia franchise should be right up your alley. Since the release of the first Neptunia game in 2010, this Japanese RPG series has presented fanciful takes on the age-old console wars. With Super Neptunia RPG, the franchise finally makes its debut on a Nintendo system, as well as its first foray into 2D game design. While this latest entry features all the charm and fast-paced gameplay that make the series so endearing, the larger package feels so rough around the edges that it can be hard to recommend.
