Next numbered Neptunia game to be announced in 2025 - Gematsu

The next numbered Neptunia game will be announced in 2025, Compile Heart confirmed in the latest issue of Weekly Famitsu.

The story, which continues from previous games, has been in the works for the past three or four years in collaboration with series illustrator Tsunako. The four goddesses—Neptune, Noire, Blanc, and Vert—will appear, and plenty of new developments will unfold.

A new illustration, likely for the new numbered title, is also published in the magazine, which our source for the information describes as resembling Honkai: Star Rail.

So… Madou 4… or Fia rather?

On one hand, I'm happy at least the non-human characters are coming back! They were my favs! It might be good to breathe new air into the Madou world with a new protagonist.

Skeleton-T as a teacher/staff member? Pog. That's a cute development for him! Seems all the returning characters (that SEGA allowed to relinquish) are staff members. And I love the non-humans so that's a W for me.

On the other hand, not telling fans that the OG main cast was not returning until now feels kind of… deceitful.

Japanese users seem to have that sentiment.

So that's not a good sign. Well, okay! It doesn't need Arle and co. to be a good game, just needs to have that nice old Madou tone and old school gameplay that people loved!

Oh… it… doesn't have that either, huh? It's another 3D game with visual novel cutscenes with a more complex elemental spell system…

And with copypasted dungeon layouts, joooooy-

Yeah, okay, I'm gonna pull off the optimism mask. I'm sorry, but as someone who has poured hours into Neptunia and Compile Heart's other work, this is just… them retreading the same mistakes they did ten years ago.

To which at this point-

Why not just make a sequel to the previous Sorcery Saga?

You would be telling the truth to people on what they should expect, you would bring back the roguelikes that are taking off in popularity in recent years- you could do something with Pupuru and co. rather than leaving them to rot since the game bombed by being Vita exclusive for a long while.

If SEGA cannot relinquish the rights of Arle and co, that's fine. Pupuru was still right there to use. If they didn't want to affiliate with Pupuru, that's also fine, Fia seems cute.

The problem here, is not that there is a new protagonist. Amitie and other characters worked just fine because Puyo Fever was fun and the characters were good! Sorcery Saga could work if it leaned more on having its own identity rather than reusing the Madou characterizations.

The problem is that this is yet another typical Compile Heart / Idea Factory game. Nine months ago, I literally said "Compile Heart being involved is worrying given their track record."

Things like mediocre gameplay, frequent crashes/lag, and very, very uncomfortable perverted jokes. SEGA may not have trusted them with Arle and the rest for a good reason. (if SEGA was the reason for the main charas being barred from use, rather than some other issue)

So please be aware of that. I'm not trying to be a hater here, I'm just… someone who has played these games and them being super grindy/crashing a lot. I would love to be proven wrong and for this to just be cute with some random horror final boss moments. I really would!

If not, then I think it's time for some indie game creator to make a Madou successor.

Just letting Touhou And Puyo Puyo Fans know (or remind in case anyone already knew this) that there is going to two games from Compile Heart coming out next year. One is a Touhou Tactical RPG called Touhou Spell Carnival that cooperate elements from the bullet hell games.

The other is Madou Monogatari 4, a sequel to the RPG series that Puyo Puyo spun off from and also a series that hasn’t received a game in decades with many people who work the series in the past coming back to work on it.

Nothing too big.

✨HAPPY BIRTHDAY @mermaidsscale !✨

This is a Puyo/Madou Monogatari Persona I made for my good friend years ago that I recently revisited to make this gift! Also the first time coloring them too!

Also I would like to a warm thank you to my sweetie, @kiwwy101 for suggesting some of the color theming! Mainly to keep the primary color PURPLE !

Other than that, this was planned for YEARS actually. Originally going to be a Puyo Puyo themed gift, but I changed it to Madou Monogatari because I liked the creepy atmosphere the PC-98 games had.

Hope you and everyone who’s a fan of this series enjoys this special piece I made for you!✨

Madou Saturn deserves a sequel. Not like a sequel story, since like, that's all the games after it, that's how series' work.

But like, another game with the same gameplay, maybe references to Saturn. I'd pay to see Sega characters in it's sprite style

Look Out, Blood Skelter!

Today’s piece is a big one! It’s the cast of Mary Skelter: Nightmares in their psychotic superforms! Hope you got enough blood, Jack, this purification might squeeze you dry 😈
