In addition to the confirmation of a patch for Super Neptunia RPG the publisher also detailed some additional gameplay functions of the game; of which are listed below:

• Magic Stones • Magic Stone Switches: Throughout the game, players will find various switches in cities and dungeons. Examine a stone switch to activate a challenge and collect Magic Stones by touching them. Collecting all the Magic Stones within the time limit will clear the challenge and they can be repeated if a player fails to collect all the Magic Stones. Players can use the Magic Stones as in-game currency to purchase more items!
• Quests: NPCs within cities and dungeons can provide quests with beneficial rewards. There are two types of quests: Extermination or Collect/Deliver. Defeat a certain amount of enemies or collect a certain amount of items and deliver it back to the NPC for your rewards. Note that players cannot decline a quest once accepted.
• Hunt Quests: Each city has a Guild where players can accept Hunt Quests from them. By accepting a Hunt Quest, a target monster will appear within a specific dungeon. Depending on the target monster, there are times when they can hide in an area not displayed on the dungeon map. Each Hunt Quest has a recommended level ranging from Lv 5 – 100, but players can challenge themselves without regard for the levels. Defeat the target monster for experience points and item drops!

Super Neptunia RPG will be released on to the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and Windows PC via Steam on the 28th June 2019 within Europe. A Limited Edition version of Super Neptunia RPG for the Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4 is also available to pre-order from the official Idea Factory Store within Europe and North America.
