The year is almost and there isn't a formal announcement of a new Neptunia game...at this point I've lost hope, *if* a new mainline Neptunia game exists, it's not going to be officially announced this year even though there is an article that said ''Next numbered Neptunia game to be announced in 2025''...
>>729378794At this point you should be more worried about IF even being able to keep the lights on.
>>729379069That too...Idea Factory and Compile Heart might be having problems behind the scenes.
>>729379260They should release more low quality doujin games for $90 with $25 day-1 DLC and no ecchi appeal. That'll surely dig them out of the hole they're in.
>>729379852long term problems require short term solutions!
>>729379852Koei Tecmo made money with official Atelier ASMR, Compile Heart could try something like that, cheap content that isn't a game to make easy money.
>>729378794Wasn't Neptunia stuck in spin off hell for almost an entire decade?
>>729382698Yeah.
>>729382698YesExcept the spinoffs were better than the mainline games
>>729383494Most of them. Hyperdimension Neptunia and Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth 2 aren't bad games but in my opinion, Hyperdimension Neptunia U: Action Unleashed and Cyberdimension Neptunia: 4 Goddesses Online (for example) are even better.
neps b neppin yo
U no rike knockoff!?!?Y u no rike!?!?
>>729384389I played that game on consoles. I hope that they release more Neptunia games for Xbox Series S and Xbox Series X, and I say as someone who doesn't have a modern Xbox console.
>>729384318As always.
>>729384389It was literally a spinoff of a spinoff (as in, it was just the bike minigame from Game;Maker repackaged as a full game) that I'm convinced was just an excuse to bring Uzume back. Which is great, I love Uzume, but I also think she deserves better than this shit. Optimistically, this was just testing her new model for the new mainline.
>>729378794https://www.compileheart.com/news/?num=20251008Unless CH files for bankruptcy tomorrow it's coming at some point. I just hope it goes back to being turn based. SvS and Game Maker were fine but I don't really want a mainline game in that style.
The OP I made has an error, it should say ''the year is almost over'' of course. Other than that, who knows if they'll release a new numbered/mainline Neptunia game next year...
>>729386695It was explicitly supposed to be announced this year, though. It may still release eventually, yes, but the fact that they're missing deadlines and are seemingly hesitant to show it off doesn't paint a good picture.
2025 ain't over
>>729378794Today I will remind them.https://x.com/IdeaFactoryIntl/status/1267533296566583302
>>729386947>"coming 2025">drops at 11:50pm on december 31stThe Jagex special
>>729378794Reminder that IF is shit and neptunia will never be good until they release a game where purple millium and arfoire save gamindistri from corrupted CPU goddesses and the evil Credit card curse behind the scenes.
>>729387398Put the Nep down
>>729387119I never forgot about that. It may or may not be worth pointing out that Koei Tecmo America never made a statement like that unlike IFI and many other companies in general.
>>729387492I won't.
I'm playing ReVerse and it feels like enemies are basically getting thrown across to the other side of the battle zone with every attack. Did the other games do that? because I don't remember it being like this at all.
>>729388242Yes, Megadimension Neptunia VII comes to mind.
>>729388537Oh thanks. I didn't remember that at all but I guess it's been almost 10 years.
>>729389295Knock back or characters getting thrown across the battlefield is something that some turn-based Neptunia games have.
https://www.gematsu.com/2025/12/japanese-game-creators-discuss-2026-ambitionsPosting only for the part of Idea Factory of course.
>>729378794The series is completely fucked without Tsunako. I hope mom comes back with the milk and cigarettes...
>>729391686Her work in more recent games has been limited compared to games released before 2020.
The Nep games were never good. They have uh... good character designs and that's it
>>729393981Aquatic Rom
>>729395238VII is at least a mediocre JRPG, and isn't riding entirely on the strengths of the character designs/voice acting/humor/fanservice. The series had been slowly improving up to that point.
>>729391686I could save it. Arfoire did nothing wrong.
>>729395778This one too.
>>729378794Nyamota Neptunia game in 2026. Trust the plan.
>>729398206Some people would riot with a Neptunia game with that art style. Zero/ray 0805 is much better, the art made by that person looks like official art.
