Hatsune Miku x Divine Gate ZERO Collaboration Underway!

A brand new collaboration between Hatsune Miku and Divine Gate ZERO (ディバインゲート零), the mobile panel battle RPG from GungHo Online Entertainment, is now live!

The new collab was first announced back on September 23rd through a special livestream announcement on Dengeki Online’s official YouTube channel, which can be watched below!

Story

About one year has passed since Shibuya City by rocked by the Demonic Shadow Eclipse, which swallowed up everything in its path, including 30% of the population on Earth.

At what was the epicenter of the chaos, the site of the Shibuya Rock Festival, volunteers are now rebuilding and reconstructing. They are preparing to hold another festival with the theme “Breathing Life Back Into The World Through The Power of Music.”

Among the multitude of artists who will be attending the festival, there is one certain diva who has confirmed her participation.

“May my song reach everyone in the world, and may it serve as a symbol of courage and hope.”

The name of the participating diva who read these words is none other than Hatsune Miku.

The festival organization committee is incredibly enthusiastic about holding this festival around Miku’s appearance, intent on turning it into that “symbol of courage and hope.”

However…
