Two franchises well known to Japanese video game enthusiasts will soon land together in the West: the publisher Idea Factory International has formalized the release in Europe and the United States of Neptunia x Senran Kagura: Ninja War (or Senran NinNinNinja Taisen Neptune: Shoujo- tachi no Kyouen in Japan) for this year 2021… Without further details as to the release date.
This PlayStation 4 title will offer a face to face between the characters from these two very specific game series in gameplay which should put action and combat in the spotlight.
Robot ninjas come to stir up trouble
Neptunia x Senran Kagura: Ninja War is an action game that will pit the characters from the two video game franchises in 2 distinct ninja schools: the Konpa School which will include the characters of Neptunia and the Hainpa School whose students are well known Senran Kagura fans . The two camps are thus opposed in a battle for the feudal control of the country - until the arrival of the evil metal ninjas sent by You Geima, a third party which folds the cards thus becoming the top priority.
Neptunia x Senran Kagura: Ninja War will feature beat'em'all-style gameplay that should come close to what the Senran Kagura franchise offers , with special moves on an absurd scale and plenty of onscreen enemies. It will thus be possible to choose his fighter from a vast cast of characters drawn from their respective franchises.
Two enemy schools
The Konpa Shcool will include, for example, Hatonokuni, Black Heart, White Heart, Green Heart - the personifications of game consoles protagonist of the Hyperdimension Neptunia games . On the Hanipa School side, we will find the ninja students Asuka, Homura, Yumi and Miyabi - a selection highly appreciated by fans of the Senran Kagura series . Each character will be able to transform in order to access a different set of moves and altered design.
Neptunia x Senran Kagura: Ninja War will be released on PlayStation 4 in Europe and the United States in the course of 2021. In addition to a digital edition, two physical editions are also planned: the standard edition at 49, $ 99 and a limited edition of which we do not know the content or the price.
Two franchises that I love to death! Too bad no PC port announced.
