Brave Neptunia By Artisan Studio Gets First Screenshots Showing The Side-Scrolling RPG

Compile Heart’s next Neptunia game is Brave Neptunia, a side-scrolling RPG by Quebec-based Artisan Studio. Amazon Japan has gone up with its first screenshots giving us a closer look at a different kind of Nep.

In Brave Neptunia we’ll have the familiar main characters in Neptune, Noire, Blanc, Vert, and many others, but this time they’ll lose their memories and find themselves in a different kind of Gamindustri with new characters to meet.

This time, the goddesses will find themselves in a 2D world, where people worship and create 2D games. Those who refuse to go with the old-fashioned 2D ways, in other words, those who use new tech or 2D god forbids—a 3D game—will be cast aside to have their spirits destroyed. Neptune and friends alongside Histoire, who was turned into a book, will step foot into a new kind of journey.

Brave Neptunia releases in Japan on September 27, 2018 for PlayStation 4.
