Crypt of the NecroDancer, the rhythm-based roguelike game, has recently announced a new crossover DLC with the popular virtual singer, Hatsune Miku. This new update includes a new playable character, Hatsune Miku, who comes with unique abilities such as moving in all 8 directions, attacking enemies with a spring onion, and charming monsters with her singing ability. The DLC also introduces a new soundtrack featuring 15 Hatsune Miku songs, including two tracks created by Danny Baranowsky.
Players can expect a fresh gameplay experience with Hatsune Miku’s unique skills and abilities as they navigate through the challenging dungeons of Crypt of the NecroDancer. The new soundtrack adds an exciting element to the game, immersing players in the rhythm and beats of Hatsune Miku’s music while they battle their way through hordes of enemies.
Compatibility and Multiplayer Features
One of the key features of the DLC is its compatibility with online multiplayer sessions. Players who host a multiplayer session as Hatsune Miku in the “SYNCHRONY” mode can invite others to join the lobby, even if they do not own the DLC. This allows for seamless cross-platform play and enhances the overall multiplayer experience for all players.
Additionally, the DLC introduces a compatibility mode for joining online multiplayer lobbies hosted on older versions of the game. This feature ensures that players on different versions of the game can still connect and play together, promoting inclusivity and accessibility in the online multiplayer community.
Changes and Bug Fixes
In addition to the new content, the DLC also includes changes and bug fixes to improve the overall gameplay experience. The default multi-press combos for special actions have been adjusted to no longer apply to controllers, giving players more control over their actions in the game. Players can still manually assign multi-press combos for special actions through the “Reassign controls” menu.
Furthermore, a bug causing screen tearing on some systems has been fixed in this update. Players who continue to experience tearing after the update can adjust their settings in the “Display Options” menu by unchecking the “Reduce Input Lag” option.
Overall, the Hatsune Miku crossover DLC for Crypt of the NecroDancer offers players a fresh and exciting experience with a new character, soundtrack, and features. Whether playing solo or with friends in multiplayer sessions, the DLC promises to enhance the gameplay and provide hours of rhythmic fun for fans of the game and Hatsune Miku alike. Be sure to keep an eye out for the DLC release on the Nintendo Switch, coming soon.
