Brace Yourself Games, developer of Crypt of the Necrodancer, a roguelike rhythm game, is collaborating with Crypton Future Media INC to release a Hatsune Miku DLC to the game.
The DLC adds Hatsune Miku into the game, with some differences in the gameplay. Check the differences below according to the Steam page:
- Move in all 8 directions, don’t stand still!
- Dance through enemies to hit them with your trusty spring onion!
- No shovel – dig by dashing through enemies into walls instead!
- Charm monsters and shatter walls with your new ability: SING!
- Land consecutive hits to deal increasing amounts of damage and regain SING charges!
Along with the new character, also come new official outfits/skins and 15 Hatsune Miku’s songs:
- 1-1 (118 BPM): Too Real by Danny Baranowsky
- 1-2 (128 BPM): Wonder Style by colate

The new songs are played by default when playing Hatsune Miku but can be played with other characters. Due to differences in song speed and duration, using this soundtrack on other characters submits to the “Custom Music” leaderboards. Achievements can still be unlocked while playing with the Miku soundtrack.
Crypt of the Necrodancer: Hatsune Miku released today, April 4, and is already available to be purchased on Steam and GOG for $1.99. PlayStation and Nintendo Switch are yet to be determined.
