Maybe it’s me getting old, with my reaction time slowing, but I’m not a huge fan of how double notes work in this game. Getting into the core gameplay, it’s still the same winning Project DIVA formula, but some cracks are starting to show. As you can see below, you can do some incredibly artsy things with it! I am all that is art. There’s also a ton of fan designed t-shirts available in the game, and if those aren’t to your liking, you can design your own in the in-game editor. Every Sega crossover, including my personal favorites in the Resonance of Fate and Virtua Fighter outfits? You betcha. Want the GoodSmile Racing Miku costumes? They’re here.
HATSUNE MIKU MEGA MIX PS4 SERIES
Those who love the series for its robust character customization will be pretty thrilled, as every single Module and customization item in the series history has found its way here. I adore me some Miku, don’t get me wrong, but some of my favorite songs in this series are MEIKO songs, and it’s frustrating to see her get so very little love once again. While Miku and Luka have quite a large selection of songs available, older VOCALOIDs like MEIKO and KAITO only have one solo song each at launch, and only a couple in the DLC packs as well. My only actual gripe about the song selection mirrors one I had for both Project DIVA X and Future Tone. Only a couple exceptions to this rule exist, like World’s End Dancehall using a video based on the original NND video instead of the elaborate assassin battle set piece it previously used, and they still look pretty fantastic. Each video is visually impressive even on the weaker Switch hardware, with most returning songs retaining their traditional videos. A who’s who of some of the series’ most iconic songs, alongside some brand new certified club bangers like “Catch the Wave” and “Dreaming ChuChu”. There’s 101 songs to start out with, with about 40 more as DLC on the way. The biggest thing that impressed me about MegaMix is the amount of content packed into the game. Does the gold standard stay golden? Or is there a bit of rust starting to form after all these years? PLAY RESONANCE OF FATE Now, in a game originally released in Japan to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the Project DIVA series, Miku and her amazing technicolor dreamcrew have made their Nintendo Switch debut with Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA MegaMix. Aside from that, they’ve been the industry standard in the genre, only challenged by another Sega project, the Persona Dancing series.
The worst thing you could really say about the games since finally making their debut in the west is that Future Tone, the predecessor to this game, was a bit too greedy in its free-to-play approach.
What can be said about Hatsune Miku that hasn’t already been said? From her humble beginnings as a Nico Nico Douga star, all the way to being announced as a performer at Coachella 2020, before 2020 happened and robbed us of the Tupac and Miku hologram collaboration we all needed and deserved, our favorite bacon-wrapped hot dog obsessed virtual idol has had quite the ride.Īlong the way, Miku’s series of Project DIVA rhythm games have long been the king of the genre, and possibly Sega’s most consistent franchise.
