Compile Heart

The latest issue of Weekly Famitsu magazine has revealed that Compile Heart plans to port three games in the Hyperdimension Neptunia series over to Switch.

The three games in question will be Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth 1, Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth 2: Sisters Generation, and Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth 3: V Generation. All of these titles were originally PlayStation Vita remasters of the first three Hyperdimension Neptunia games, now making their appearance on Nintendo systems for the first time.

Neptunia: Sisters VS Sisters gameplay

Neptunia: Sisters VS Sisters came to Switch in the west this week, and we have new gameplay from the final release. Nearly an hour of RPG is here for the RPG.

As a reminder, here’s what to expect from the title:

Neptunia Sisters VS Sisters review

System: Switch
Release date: January 23, 2024
Developer: Idea Factory / Compile Heart
Publisher: Idea Factory


Hyperdimension Neptunia is a series that has been around for a long time now, and much like the video game industry that it shamelessly parodies, it is constantly changing, incorporating new ideas and gameplay mechanics into its premise to stay relevant. This has not always been for the better, however. Neptunia: Sisters VS Sisters, the latest entry in the franchise to make its way to the Switch, now features some of the series’ best writing to date, but is let down quite significantly in other areas, making it a tough sell for any but those already invested in the series.

Neptunia: Sisters VS Sisters release date

Idea Factory has passed along a final release date for Neptunia: Sisters VS Sisters in North America and Europe. In both regions, it’s slated for January 23, 2024.

Neptunia: Sisters VS Sisters previously hit Japan this past August. Idea Factory then announced localization plans in September.

Here’s an overview of the game:

Neptunia: Sisters VS Sisters

Idea Factory will release an English version of Neptunia: Sisters VS Sisters on Switch in the west, the company confirmed today. The title is planned for 2024 in both North America and Europe.

Neptunia: Sisters VS Sisters was previously announced for Switch, but only in Japan. It has been available in that region since August.

Neptunia Game Maker R:Evolution English west

Idea Factory made a number of new announcements at Anime Expo 2023, highlighted by the Switch version of Neptunia Game Maker R:Evolution.

While Neptunia Game Maker R:Evolution was previously revealed for the platform, this is the first time we’re hearing about localization. It will be available in 2024.

Also planned are My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom! – Pirates of the Disturbance (slated for Winter 2023) and Sympathy Kiss (planned for early 2024).

Here’s an overview of each game as well as trailers:

Mugen Souls Z

Original (6/19): Eastasiasoft, Idea Factory, and Compile Heart announced today that Mugen Souls Z is seeing release on Switch. It will be available this September.

Mugen Souls Z is a sequel to the original game, which is also on Switch. The RPG features multiple open worlds to explore, extensive character customization, and strategic turn-based combat on free-roaming battle maps. On Switch, the game includes all prior extras, content true to the original Japanese release such as hot springs mini-games and additional CG gallery images, plus full English language support for both text and audio.

A new update has gone live for Dokapon Kingdom Connect, bringing the game up to versio 1.1.0. This is a particularly noteworthy update due to its inclusion of Local Wireless Mode for the game, allowing multiple players to play together without needing an internet connection or Nintendo Switch Online account. Some AI adjustments and bug fixes are also included. Full details can be found below:
