Today, SEGA is proud to announce that Hatsune Miku: Project Diva F is headed West! The game will arrive this August on both PlayStation 3 and Playstation Network in North America!
Hatsune Miku: Project Diva F is a rhythm game featuring 38 unique songs, including popular tracks like Tell Your World and Black★Rock Shooter. Players can create and share their own Miku videos in “Edit Mode”, and can customize the popular diva with over 90 different costumes and 100 accessories. Being the first console game released for the franchise in the West, Hatsune Miku: Project Diva F will include all of the updated graphics, additional songs, and features of the Japanese version.
Hatsune Miku is the world’s most popular digital singer, produced by Crypton Future Media, INC. Her popularity continues to increase in the West and she has over 950,000 dedicated English speaking fans on Facebook. In 2011, she packed the Nokia Theater in Los Angeles for her first ever Western concert, and tickets sold out almost instantly. To gauge interest for Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA F in the west, SEGA asked fans to like and share an image of Miku to pledge their support, and the response was astounding. In less than three days, the post received over 25,000 likes and 15,000 shares.
In short, it was your voices, as fans, that helped make this happen.
We’re thrilled to bring this title out for you, and we’re counting on your support. Tell Your World!
Hatsune Miku: Project Diva F is slated for release on PlayStation 3 and via digital download on PlayStation Network in August 2013. If you’re excited to get your hands the game, you won’t have to wait too long – the demo will be available this Tuesday, June 11th!

Thia isn’t a dancing game dude. This is a rhythm game.

All though this game and the character are not my cup of tea, I hope this allows companies in the East to know that their products are wanted in the West. It would be nice to see localization of more games.
i really wasn’t expecting this! great news for those who haven’t played it. the bad thing for me is that i already imported and finished de ps3 and vita versions long time ago >.<
I’m soooo excited for this game! I almost imported a copy. I wonder if there will be any pre-order bonuses or even a collector’s edition…
EVen though I already own the Japanese version of both the Vita and PS3 versions, I can’t express how exciting this news is to me! >_<
Now, you know what you must do, Sega. Announce a Valkyria Chronicles HD Collection for PS3, with the second two PSP games translated. I want to play more VC, dangit, and if you refuse to produce a real follow-up to the PS3 title, well then, up-res your PSP games and put ’em on Blu-Ray! That’s what that PSP Remaster tech is for, right? If the God of War Saga Collection is a thing, and Metal Gear Peace Walker can come to PS3, I see no reason why other games like Valkyria Chronicles 3 can’t. Go grab that fan translation if you must and finish it up/make it official (didn’t you do that with Monster World IV?). DO IT. You know you want to….
The fact that this isn’t coming on the vita is a big ‘WTF?’ It’s not like they have to do much other than translate the text, which they’re already doing for the ps3.
W/E….we’re still getting Rayman Legends and Dragon’s Crown…rhythm games would be nice..but there’s a psp for that.
Are there going to be any differences w/the US version and JPN version?? It’s also great that others can now enjoy this game as I have. I’ve had to import both the PS3 one and the Vita one. Let’s also hope the Vita one comes over here as well. Unrelated topic but they need to bring PSO2 over here for the Vita. Fingers crossed…
Awesome! I’ll definitely be picking one up! It’s fantastic to see Miku being more involved with the west. Hopefully more Diva games will follow! Thanks for giving us this opportunity.
Any word on a limited edition?
I have no money left over from buying both versions of PDF,if I did I would buy them a second time,thats how much I love the vocaloids.SEGA,to make my life more better than it already is,please release all of the Project Diva games in the west,and Dreamy Theater,the vita is backward compatible so I could play Project Diva Extend on the vita.
Already have the import but I’m buying anyway. YAKUZA 5 NEXT SEGA!
Now I feel a bit silly having bought the Vita and PS3 version imported from Japan less than a month ago.
Though, from what I read … it looks like this will include all the DLC from Japan as well? Or will that come later?
There were six “DLC” songs in the Japanese VITA version that are included on the disc for the PS3 edition. (This applies to both the Japanese and US retail releases.) There are also a number of additional improvements in the PS3 version.
