Idea Factory International will bring their 10th anniversary celebration to this year’s Anime Expo.

Revealed today, the event will take place on Sunday, July 2 at Lounge 21 @ Concourse Hall Foyer from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. During this event, attendees will hear information about forthcoming titles, and they’ll be treated to a free grab bag along with photo ops and free face paintings.

Formed in 2013 by Japanese video game developer/publisher Idea Factory, Idea Factory International was opened to “focus on providing general and overall information regarding such Idea Factory properties to North American and European fans, as well as strengthen the Idea Factory brand around the globe.”

Back in January, Idea Factory released Neptunia: Sisters VS Sisters on the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, and PC worldwide. This is the 15th spinoff title in the Hyperdimension Neptunia game franchise. A synopsis for the game reads:

While the Goddesses were out responding to a distress call from the faraway PC Continent, Nepgear and the other Candidates were dispatched to an abandoned research facility in order to investigate a monster outbreak.
It was there that they encountered the Ashen Goddess, who trapped them in a capsule and placed them in a deep sleep. By the time they awoke, they were astonished to discover that 2 years had passed.

After they emerge from slumber, they learn that Neptune has been missing since her mission to the PC Continent 2 years ago, and in the absence of its Goddess and Candidate, Planeptune was ravaged by a series of strange outbreaks, collectively referred to as the Trendi Phenomenon.

Suddenly finding herself robbed of home and family, Nepgear is met with the greatest challenge she's ever faced.

This is a story about finding hope in the midst of despair, and the rebirth of a Goddess in the wake of destruction.

Another spinoff titled Neptunia GameMaker R:Evolution is set for an August 10 release in Japan for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch.
