Various costumes for Miku, Rin, Luka, and MEIKO
The upcoming Vocaloid Nendoroid-themed game for 3DS, Hatsune Miku: Project Mirai, has been given an official title by SEGA: Hatsune Miku and Future Stars: Project Mirai. It is not a mere title change though, as SEGA also intends to differentiate between this game and the PSP-bound Hatsune Miku: Project Diva series.
Should you choose one or more Vocaloid for a song in Project Diva, he/she/they would only dance for the music, but the song remains to be sung by Hatsune Miku. In the case of Project Mirai, you may choose which Vocaloid to sing certain songs. Whoa … isn’t it nice to listen to Rin, Luka, and MEIKO’s voices there? XD
Anyway, there are six songs that have been announced to appear in Project Mirai:
Did you know that Project Mirai also have augmented reality (AR) features? Yes, you could take pictures of AR concerts being performed by Hatsune Miku on your desk. Awesome! XD
Anyway, Hatsune Miku and Future Stars: Project Mirai is scheduled for release on March 8, 2012 in Japan – one day prior to Miku Day on March 9 (3/9). Don’t forget that the limited edition of this game will also include a Nendoroid Petit Hatsune Miku: Project Mirai version. ^^
