Prepare for the biggest Hatsune Miku game ever released: Hatsune Miku: Project Diva Future Tone will be arriving in the West on January 10th, 2017! It will be available for download for the PlayStation 4 in the Americas and Europe on the same day, and comes with over 200 songs and 300 modules when you combine the two halves of the game.

What is Future Tone? It’s the largest Hatsune Miku game yet, with 200+ songs and 300+ costumes for Miku and her digital friends to play around with. Plus, it’s the arcade incarnation of the Hatsune Miku games, meaning there’s a slightly different control scheme. It’s more of the same great Miku action across five difficulty levels (If you’ve been nailing songs from Project DIVA X on EXTREME, just wait until you load up EXTRA EXTREME in Future Tone.)

Future Tone is a collection of two song packages each priced at $29.99: ‘Future Sound,’ a collection of songs centered around the Project DIVA games and ‘Colorful Tone’ which collects songs related to the Project Mirai games and arcade songs. For those who can’t get enough of the digital singer, there’s a special discount price of $53.99 for those who purchase the bundle containing both packages. European prices will be commensurate to the US Dollar pricing.

It looks like dreams do come true: If a leak through Germany’s game rating regulation system is to be believed, then it looks like SEGA will be bringing Hatsune Miku: Project Diva Future Tone on the PlayStation 4 to the West! SEGA hasn’t yet officially announced anything, but having the game rated in a Western country makes it safe to say it’s bound to happen.

The PlayStation 4 port of Future Tone was originally released in Japan on June 23rd, and is split into two separate parts titled “Future Sound” and “Colorful Tone”, which combine for a total of 220 songs and 340 modules (not counting later-released DLC). Read more about Future Tone here.

Below is the official launch trailer for the Japanese release. Keep your fingers crossed for an announcement from SEGA soon!

What else happened during the week of June 20th that we missed? Here’s a quick wrap-up.

Hatsune Miku: Project Diva Future Tone has finally launched for the PlayStation 4! The release on June 22nd was met with much excitement, and there has been many, many screenshot shares via twitter and PS4share. You can find some of these on twitter under #DIVAFT, but most are not tagged in easy ways to find. With so many fans now given the freedom to customize characters in the game in any way they see fit, you can imagine some have gone a little crazy.

But as the tweet from @Quick_first above says, we’d like to say “Thank You” to SEGA for bringing the game to PS4. It’s available only via the Japanese PlayStation Network! The official trailer video can be seen below.

The previously teased WeGo X Frederator X Hatsune Miku figure has been confirmed for overseas sale exclusively at Anime Expo 2016 in Los Angeles! She’ll be available only via the Good Smile Company booth. Anime Expo will take place at the Los Angeles Convention Center between July 1st and 4th.

After the long wait, preorders of the Snow Miku Dollfie Dream have finally begun their journey to their new homes. Preorders began in February of 2015, so some have been waiting as long 16 months(!) to finally have her. Volks also gave some useful advice on their blog explaining that it’s a good idea to keep the box the wig comes in, as it’s useful for keeping it safe when being stored.

How many of you have reserved your own? Let us know!

The Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA Future Tone receives major site renewal today, as well as a few game features introduced via Sega feat. Hatsune Miku Project official blog. The site now features lists of over 220 songs and 340 modules for Future Sound pack, Colorful Tone pack, and Prelude.

The main app needed to launch the game, Prelude, will contain 2 songs and 40 modules. Additional songs and modules require purchases of either the Future Sound pack, a selection around the Project DIVA home console series (around 120 songs/over 200 modules), or the Colorful Tone pack, a selection around the Project DIVA Arcade and Project Mirai series (around 100 songs/over 100 modules). More details in our past article.

One of the introduced game features is the hair customization feature, where players can freely apply hairstyle to a module from other modules of the same character. Some modules, however, will be exceptions due to their outfits or other restriction factors.


Advanced players can also challenge themselves with the Survival Course, a continuous play using a single life gauge. Songs will be selected at random after the first song of the player’s choice. The number of combos will also pass on to the next song.

In related news, the next Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA X DLC has been announced, and will feature two songs: “Sharing The World” by BIGHEAD and “Hand in Hand” by kz(livetune). The contents will be released on August 25th for free on PS4 and cost 500 yen for each on PS Vita.
