Hatsune Miku has officially moved over from Vocaloid to Crypton's own NewType software, with the opening of preorders yesterday, and the prototype of the engine and her voicebank also being available at the same time.
So far, there's a handful of both originals and covers, with the usual range from untuned to tuned, and opinion seems to be fairly mixed. From what I've heard, I'm not too sure what I think, but I am looking forward to how the full release compares, as well as when more people get ahold of the software and get used to tuning. Also looking forward to Crypton's other characters moving over to the new engine.
And with the MegaMix stream just aired, we now know about a second set of DLC for Megamix, as well as when the 10 new songs to Megamix are joining FT!
The FT DLC releases for Japan on July 2nd, and all ten songs are included, as well as the Catch the Wave module.
And the new DLC for Megamix? A whole new season pass, starting from July 16th, containing mostly returning songs, but also four new songs to the series, with Bless Your Breath and Bring It On as the only two newcomers announced so far (though,they'll be using their original PVs and not getting a 3DPV for PD). As well as that, a free DLC was announced, which contains three of the SEGA Theme DLC songs (but not Magical Sound Shower), and also releasing July 16th. The four new songs coming in this batch were announced to come to FT eventually down the line.
