The rise of rhythm games exceeds fans expectations because it presents new ways for them to enjoy music. Now, SEGA announces that there will be another "Hatsune Miku" title for the PlayStation 4 console, according to the Weekly Famitsu. This game is entitled "Hatsune Miku: Project Diva Future Tone DX." Some fans can call it a sequel to the previous game while other fans call it a deluxe version, thus, the symbol "DX" at the title's end.
The game will contain new songs and modules, carrying over the old songs from the previous game. Specifically, there will be 237 songs in total and 396 modules for all Vocaloids.
Most importantly, the game will include songs which were paid downloadable contents from the previous title "Hatsune Miku: Project Diva Future Tone."
Something new
First, the new features mentioned includes a new module called "Hatsune Miku 10th Anniversary Commemoration Module" designed by Mari Shimazaki. Along with the new module, there will be a limited edition called "Memorial Pack" that includes the opening titles from the first Project Diva title until the newest one, 200 songs from previous series, and a mini soundtrack for fans who pre-order it. Of course, SEGA rewards fans who pre-order the package.
Three new songs will be added to and these include the famous "Ghost Rule" by DECO*27, which is also included in another popular rhythm game coming out soon on the PlayStation 4 console.
One Twitter user named BlackKite presented the announcement along with a release date in Japan in the caption that says, "Hatsune Miku Project Diva Future Tone DX -Physical release of Future Tone incl. DLCs & new contents- out on 22 Nov."
