posted on by Karen Ressler
The official YouTube channel for the 7th Dragon 2020 franchise began streaming a promotional video on Thursday for the 7th Dragon 2020-II sequel game for PlayStation Portable. The video features the game's theme song, "HeavenZ-ArmZ," which was arranged, composed, and written by sasakure.UK and performed by Hatsune Miku. The video also features the game's character creation mode, introducing the new occupation, "idol."
The promo states that game takes place in Tokyo in 2021. Humanity faces an unprecedented threat of dragons, and as a last resort the government chooses talented young people to fight them.
In addition to singing the theme song, Hatsune Miku will sing versions of all of the game's background music. Players will also be able to meet the virtual singer in the game.
The game will feature an improved character creation system that will include 40 different voice actors and actresses to choose from in addition to appearance and occupation. Dogs' Shirow Miwa will again handle character design, and Yūzō Koshiro will again handle the music.
The sequel is slated to ship for the PlayStation Portable on April 18. Those who pre-order will receive a 7th Dragon 2020-II Bibliography CD with a special remix of five background music tracks, the short version of Hatsune Miku's theme song, a collection of player character sample voices, and a booklet.
Sega released the first 7th Dragon 2020 game for the PSP in 2011. The 7th Dragon 2020 games are spinoffs of the original 7th Dragon video game that Sega released on the Nintendo DS in 2009.
