If it wasn't for NepNep and friends, the PlayStation Vita probably wouldn't command a retail store presence at all. Fortunately, the forthcoming Hyperdimension Neptunia U: Action Unleashed will put a brand new box on store shelves next month, as Idea Factory International readies yet another entry in the uber-niche series. This one has more of an action spin to it, so there's that.
Due out digitally and physically on 19th May in North America, digitally on 22nd May in Europe, and physically on 27th May in Europe – phew – the action title will feature English and Japanese voices, as well as subtitles and PlayStation TV support. In addition to a hack-and-slash heavy focus, the full game will also feature costume degradation – we'd expect nothing less from the Senran Kagura peeps.

Here's a series I wish I was in to...there's like a new game every few months!
I usually likes Neptune series games... but this one seem to be really boring base on what shown in the trailer...
"If it wasn't for NepNep and friends, the PlayStation Vita probably wouldn't command a retail store presence at all."
Just curious about what you mean by this. Is it because IFI has been localizing these games and releasing them with only a few months at most between them?
Personally I'm still surprised to see these games on display at the Vita section when I walk into a Gamestop. Would've expected to see them only put the western titles in front and Nep Nep behind the counter (like when I went to pick up the original Neptunia all those years ago).

It's a hack and slash, so not exactly appealing the everyone. If games like Dynasty Warriors, Senran Kagura, or, hell even Pokemon Rumble (I'm probably insulting this game by comparing it to Pokemon Rumble, but it's still somewhat of an example) don't appeal to you, this game probably won't as well.
