Nep-Nep and friends go two-dimensional
A selection of screens and some lovely key art have been revealed for Compile Heart’s upcomingBrave Neptune. Well, I say “revealed”, but, really, they just sort of turned up onAmazon Japan.
The action-RPG will see series regularsNeptune, Noire, Vert and Blancbattle both amnesia and a host of horrible critters as they make their way through an all-new 2D take on Gameindustri, the beloved home of theHyperdimension Neptuniaseries. Histoire will be on hand to help the gals out, but has reverted to the form of a simple book.
Brave Neptuneis being developed by Canada’s Artisan Studios, making this the first game in the kooky series to be developed outside of the East. Not a whole lot is known about the game’s mechanics, but levels are expected to have a “labyrinthine” feel, and the tone of the game is said to be the most lighthearted yet, and that’s saying something.
Brave Neptuneis currently schedule for launch on PS4 in Japan September 27.
