Neptunia Idol Game’s Story Is About The CPUs Vs. Idol Group MOB48

Compile Heart and Dream C Club developer Tamsoft are making a Hyperdimension Neptunia idol game. What’s the story behind this? Dengeki PlayStation explains Hyperdimension Idol Neptunia PP takes place in Gamindustri, but in a parallel world from Neptunia Victory.

All of the sudden an idol game appears and MOB48 (a joke referencing the actual idol group AKB48) is taking share away from the CPUs. You have to get it back by earning stage points during live performances. Each show the number of fans and haters will change depending on the show. You can choose costumes for the idols and change the camera angle. During live events, the CPUs can transform which also transforms their singing voice.

Hyperdimension Idol Neptunia PP is slated for release on June 20 in Japan.
