More On: Cyberdimension Neptunia: 4 Goddesses Online

Idea Factory has announced that the latest game in the Hyperdimension Neptunia series will be getting a North American and European release date later this year. Cyberdimension Neptunia: 4 Goddesses Online, released in February in Japan, is a hack 'n' slash adventure that sees the series' four Goddesses enter an online fantasy game world inspired by themselves called "4 Goddesses Online". Now the real Goddesses must enter the game with rival beta testers and system glitches galore to bring back the creators of Leanverde, the World Tree, and defeat the Demon King. This actually reminds me more of Sword Art Online than anything, but I digress.

Players can change up which character they control in their party whenever they wish, dress them however they wish, and map multiple skills to each face button and eventually unleash an Awakening Skill to obliterate anything that crosses them. Cyberdimension Neptunia: 4 Goddesses Online will launch for the PlayStation 4 on October 10th in North America and October 13th in Europe in both digital and physical formats. The Steam version has been pushed back for an early 2018 launch "to ensure a smooth gameplay experience".

LOS ANGELES, CA., August 14, 2017 - The world of Alsgard calls! Cyberdimension Neptunia™: 4 Goddesses Online will release on the PlayStation®4 system October 10 (NA) and October 13 (EU) in both physical and digital formats.

Story 
Long ago when the world was nothing but a void, the goddesses created Leanverde, the World Tree. 
 
The mighty Earth and the majestic oceans were born of Leanverde's sprout, and the goddesses bestowed upon this world the name of Alsgard. 
 
...At least, that's what the "4 Goddesses Online" MMO is about. Now the real Gamindustri goddesses must log in and hack 'n' slash through this game-within-a-game to bring back the creators of Leanverde and defeat the Demon King! With rival beta testers and system glitches galore, what could possibly go wrong?
