Just a few days ago we posted that Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth2: Sisters Generation, the turn-based, action RPG that was released earlier this year on the PS Vita, would be coming to Steam on June 2nd. Well, it looks like the game could not be contained and will instead be releasing next week, on May 29th.
The date is important to know in case you want to take advantage of a 50% discount of the title, which will regularly retail for $29.99. That’s pretty good savings on a release that gets upgraded 1080p graphics on PC. Take a gander at the full press release below and let us know in the comments if you’re downloading this game when it comes out next Friday.

About Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth2: Sisters Generation
20XX – Gamindustrifaces a dire crisis. Shops are boarded up, creators are overworked and starving, and death looms over all Gamindustrimen. But the CPUs refuse to let this be game over for their world!Gamindustri had severed its ties to the chaotic Lawless Realm long ago, and yet… Ever since the advent of ASIC – the Arfoire Syndicate of International Crime – morality has all but vanished. As much as 80 percent of all students are rumored to worship a being known as Arfoire. Parents, despite knowing it to be a poor deity to worship, have gone ahead and allowed their children to do so. Even the governing bodies of the world have turned a blind eye to it, rather than crush the crisis in its infancy. Well, basically, Gamindustri was pretty messed up, you guys. Ahem.
Thus did Gamindustri fall into complete and utter disarray. Those who tire of living in this corrupt world are sent to wander the Gamindustri Graveyard, forever lost.
