Superdimension Neptune Vs Sega Hard Girls is obviously made for fans, and this is probably the most well produced Neptunia game in quite a while. It has its positives, but if you aren’t already a fan there is very little reason to pick this up. I will say though, that this is a decent starting point if you are interested in the franchise, and it’s a fairly good deal for how much it costs. So even though the timeline has changed, a lot of the game’s elements haven’t from previous titles. But if you like this franchise or cute anime girls in general – what are you waiting for?

Critic reviews
- Superdimension takes a number of steps forward for the series and a few steps back. Overall I really enjoyed it and it's clear a lot of care went into thinking up new and interesting mechanics but sadly an overuse of old content holds the game back from being outstanding.
- 7.0Superdimension Neptune VS SEGA Hard Girls still carries over some of the faults from past games, but it makes meaningful changes that really help improve the formula. It’s a refreshing step forward in a series that seemed to be treading ground. It’s a formidable RPG, and fans of the franchises crossing over should definitely check it out.
- Finally, series newcomers should approach carefully. The story and most of the game mechanics are welcoming to a neophyte, and well explained immediately before they are needed, but some online hint searching will become required to complete some simple missions.
- 7.0Fans of either series will find plenty to enjoy about Superdimension Neptune. Not only are there a ton of references to scratch that nostalgic itch, but the gameplay is more than satisfactory to help it stand up as its own entry, even if there's a fair amount of recycled content and concepts. Fans of the series probably know exactly what they're getting into here. A lot will ultimately depend on whether you dislike IF as a character, but as far as I'm concerned those people that don't like her don't exist - so give it a try.
- 7.0Superdimension Neptune Vs. SEGA Hard Girls stays true to its roots, with some small additions that help breathe some life into it. There are real issues with the Steam port, as well as some degree of repetitiveness. The new dungeons feel fun, but hearing old tunes lowers some of the enjoyment. Viewed strictly in a complete bubble, on a technical level, this is one of the best titles in the series so far.
