Re; Birth 2 SISTERS GENERATION will be out in Japan on the 20th of March 2014. Details are still thin on the ground, but it will include the four Oracles as playable characters this time around. The above clip is from this page, while the one below is from the teaser site for the game: ----- (original post) It may be a while yet before more news surfaces on this front, but we know that a Vita remake of Mk2 is on the production schedule. Are there any changes you may expect to see in the remake, and are there things you would, or would not, want to happen? I can imagine the world being re-worked in order to better fit with the end of Re; Birth 1, and the 3D character portraits swapped out in the dialogue portions for animated 2D ones instead. I do think the candidates might be due for some new outfits, though. Perhaps a more Vita-inspired set of clothing for Uni, 3DS-based ones for Rom and Ram, and... some sort of alternate style for Nepgear? (Maybe something with more purple on it, akin to Neptune's outfit from V and PP?) __________________

I think it's way too early to tell. I suppose Felistella will work on the sequel as well. But with news of Noire's game coming out soon, I don't expect any news till early next year at earliest.

At the very least, the way things are set up in Re; Birth 1 (particularly in the true ending, whatever that turns out to be) may well offer clues as to how they plan to lead in to the next game. Say, if the continents are still floating, or if they somehow coalesce into the kind of landmasses seen on the G.C. 2012 map. Assuming that Re; Birth 2 is meant to be in the same timeline, that is. (But then, I would have thought that part of the point of Re; Birth as a series was to do just that.) __________________

If it is a re-imagined mk2 I would like to see the following changes: I would like to get the other candidates sooner and more interaction between Nepgear and Uni. Pretty much what they did in Re;Birth1. I would like for Nepgear to have her V personality, in mk2 she was really bland and boring. Also the true end needs some work, I never understood why Nepgear was the only one that could defeat Arfoire. The conquest end was a bit too dark, it was a nice change but I'm not sure if it fits in this game. A bit more humor in the main story would be nice. The chirper events were always funny but the main story was too serious (probably because of the absence of Neptune). Also I do hope we will see Cave again. But after seeing all the changes the made in Re;Birth1 I fully trust CH to know whats best. Re;Birth1 feels like a completely new game that only borrows some story elements form HDN.

I'd like for more sisterly interaction for all of the sibling pairs, and more Oracle screentime. I'm wondering how they will handle the Makers though. Will we go back to what was in MK2 or will the V Makers make another appearance on the roster for consistency's sake.

Hopefully, some Uni/Nepgear moments on Re;birth2 just like Noire/Neptune. >_<

Definitely more with the Candidates. More Chirper events, and more with the Makers probably. The lily ranks having influences in the story, instead of just being a weak requirement for an ending. Pushing the "Nepgear dating sim" atmosphere of the original Mk2 even further would be a nice bonus! Maintain the blue sort of feel of Mk2's UI. Don't make it so Nepgear has to be coupled to get damage break. Just give us an alternative please! Maybe a V Maker? Make Iffy chuuni in the story, instead of just being so in battle. Costumes! Lots of them for everyone! Even Makers! Also, cat ear-Tail combination! Not one or the other! BOTH AT ONCE! COMPILE HEART NEEDS TO FIX THIS TRAVESTY!! Uni's bonus voice showing up in the actual game! You know the one __________________

Get Candidates earlier. Get the Goddesses earlier. Sisterly bonding, hopefully with sisters of other nations like Neptune trying to get Uni to quit being so formal and to relax around her, Blanc sharing the twins with Vert, etc etc. Remove Conquest end because it was more of a joke than anything. mk2 makers return with new clothes, like Cave in a Mushihimesama Futari getup. Snazzy 2D portraits that emote more, I'm kind of missing the raised fist and pissed Blanc and conniving Vert portraits in Re;birth1 unless I'm not far enough to see them. New music, especially the overworld theme. I think that's about it for my list unreasonable dema-I mean things I'd like to see in Re;birth2. Oh, and for it to be on its own thing considering what happens in Re;birth1. __________________ PSN: Hoaryu Steam: Hoaryuken 3DS: 4699-5242-5980

The teaser site for the game proper is up, as are some screenshots. (I wonder when IFI will update the Japanese news feed on this site to account for these happenings?) __________________

So... this MMR crossover thing... ... I don't get it. XD; Might be easier if I had any idea what this was about, or could read what they were saying, but yeah.

In case Pirachu is browsing this portion of the forums, I noted that the Re; Birth 2 update on the front page is listed under the NA/EU heading, despite being a Japanese news item. __________________

It's also up on amazon.co.jp and other retailers, one of which said that the book contains a manga (Hello New World!, the one based on the anime) and a light novel (one of the High School series).

As noted here, this week's issue of Dengeki PlayStation includes some new info about Re; Birth 2. And as noted by xizro345 and others in the equivalent thread on the NISA forums, a few Makers old and new are set to make an appearance this time around... __________________
