What better day than Hatsune Miku’s own anniversary to release a new version of her software? Today (August 31st) marks the 9th anniversary since Crypton Future Media released Hatsune Miku’s original software in 2007, and today is also the release of her V4X update using the VOCALOID4 engine!

For the release of the software, another demo song using Hatsune Miku V4 English has been uploaded. The song is a self cover of MJQ’s original song “Melody”, now using Miku V4 English (versus the previous song’s use of V3 English, available here: http://youtu.be/iEVAYH22aS8). Check out the demo song and official product links below, and catch up on the different versions and pricing details in our previous article.

If you’re attending this year’s Hatsune Miku Magical Mirai in Japan this September like we are, you may have observed that the Japanese version of the site has received many updates, but the other languages have been neglected. One of these missing important details is an English layout map of the Makuhari Messe International Exhibition Hall.

A recent tweet from @Kowhey_Panzer39 fixes this problem, thank you very much! Click the image below for the full size.

Well, that didn’t take long! Just a couple days after SEGA’s announcement of the Japanese version of Hatsune Miku: Project Diva X HD (PS4) being pushed forward in launch to August 25th, SEGA of America has announced the North American versions will also be pushed forward with a new launch date of August 30th, 2016!

The PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita versions for the West will launch at the same time, and also with the same name of “Hatsune Miku: Project Diva X” for both versions (dropping the “HD” moniker from the Japanese PS4 version). And just like the Japanese version, the Western release will be issued a free update to support PlayStation VR in Live Edit Mode after it has launched.

The game will retail for $39.99 (CA $54.99) for the PS Vita version, and $49.99 (CA $64.99) for the PlayStation 4 version. They’re now available for preorder from various game retailers! SEGA is also bundling a preorder bonus of a free fabric pouch decorated with the 5 aura symbols from the game!


 
A new trailer featuring footage from the PlayStation 4 version is now available, showing off even more game details than the previous Japanese trailer. Check it out below! There is no information on a European release at this time.
