At the recent Miku Expo in Shanghai, China, a new Hatsune Miku mobile game titled “Dreamy Vocal” was demoed publicly for the first time. News of the game came late last month, but was somehow overlooked by a lot of the overseas fanbase until recently.

From the people who played it, the game apparently borrows design ideas from Love Live! and Idol Master. It is being developed by Black Sugar Studio, a Chinese game company, in close collaboration with Crypton Future Media. Besides being a rhythm game, features such as online player interaction and battle modes (multiplayer) are confirmed, and the expected costume customization features.

The game is expected to launch later this month for both Android and iOS platforms. It’s rumored be a free to play game, with a microtransaction store. Pre-registrations are currently open, although it seems not all phone numbers work (mine did, but it didn’t work for another friend). This is not required to play the game, however. It’s also unknown if the game will be region locked to China.

Two years after the first preorder launch, the Deep sea Girl version Hatsune Miku figure is up for a rerelease! Measuring in at 1/8 scale in size, this figure marks the release of what has to be one of the most elegant Miku sculptures to date.

From Yuuyu-P’s popular song with over a million views on Nico Nico Douga, ‘Deep Sea Girl’ comes a rerelease of the popular 1/8th scale Hatsune Miku figure! The figure is based on the beautiful illustration by Haruyo, drawn in commemoration of the song being selected as a part of the Million Saisei & EXIT TUNES PRESENTS vocalodream album.

Miku is posed sitting at the bottom of the deep sea, with her beautiful pale skin contrasting with her jet black dress. Her hair and the coral around her gently sway in the ocean current, painting a beautiful underwater scene for fans to enjoy.

She is listed at 16,000 Yen at Good Smile Company’s online shop, with preorders ending on January 12th 2017 at 12:00 PM JST. She’s expected to ship in September 2017. You can find her at any of these online stores!
