Crash Fever x Hatsune Miku 2020 Collab Now Live!

While the collaboration has been out since the 14th, I wanted to make sure that I could cover everything going on in as much detail as possible. This collab comes jam packed with two new Hatchers, seven new quests, a returning Hatcher, and multiple return quests so Miku fans have a ton of work ahead of them if they want to collect everything! 

If you’d like a detailed article breaking down everything this collab has to offer, check out our Crash Fever collab crash course here. This article is a much shorter one breaking down the basics.

Remember the collab ends February 28th at 12:59 am server time!

New Quests

Hatsune Miku Singin’ Orchestra

This quest is only available once a day and requires a Master Key to play. Beating it gets you a 6* Concert Princess Snow Miku 2020 with 11 Bugs. That’s 9 days of questing to get her to Bug Max!

On Air! Guerrilla Live Show!

This is a Guerrilla Quest only available during certain times of the day. If you see it, but sure to play it to get yourself a 6* Chibi Performers Miku and Franklin! Your best bet for Bug Maxing this unit is to play with others because higher Bug units drop when you play in multiplayer.

Special Quests

There are four normal Special Quests as well as a Score Attack quest. The first three are the ones that drop brand new units.

The Gothic Road
Available in Legend, Wizard, and Ultra
Drops 5* Fascinating Red Maquillage MEIKO with various Bug counts

Keyboard Resonance
Available in Basic, Legend, and Wizard
Drops 5* Pure Peach Blossom Megurine Luka

Virtual Classic
Available in Basic, Legend, and Wizard
Drops 5* Blue Lord KAITO

86624149_3291111980933855_5928667710304026624_nEach of these quests also has a chance of the 6* Unit Spiral Scream Kagamine Len appearing. If you defeat the quest, he’ll drop as well! This higher the difficulty of the quest, the higher the Bug count will be for this unit. There’s no other way to obtain him outside of these quests.

Standby Party

This quest doesn’t drop any units but instead drops Musical Notes 2020. These Notes can be exchanged in the Item Exchange for all the units from the previous years’ collabs!

Aim at the Top!

This Score Attack quest has both a Training level and a Score Attack level. So far I’ve been training without much luck. Newer players as well as ones who don’t frequently play the game may have difficulty with this quest.

Hatchers

There are two Hatcher for new units in this collaboration as well as a Hatcher for older Miku Collab Hatcher units. The return Hatcher even has a free 10x pull!

The new Hatchers feature multiple new units but VOCALOID fans will likely be more interested in Green String Girl Hatsune Miku and Yellow Camellia Kagamine Rin. You can obtain them as well as other exclusive collab units from the two new Hatchers. However, there is a Miku Side and a Rin Side that boost the chance of you getting either Miku or Rin.

You can even check out samples of their special theme songs (included in game) in a promotional video!

Crash Fever x Hatsune Miku 2020 Collab Crash Course

New to Crash Fever or just haven’t played it in a while but really want to get into the Miku collab? Having a hard time figuring out where to start? You’re in the right place! Here’s our crash course to help you jump right into the Miku collab! If you’d prefer just a quick rundown of what’s new, check out our previous article here.

Free Hatcher

First thing’s first: the free Hatcher. If you’re a new player, this free Hatcher is absolutely perfect to get you going with some really good units fit for the quests at hand. If you’re an old player, it’s still a free Hatcher and will hopefully help you complete your collection of Hatcher only VOCALOID units.

The Quests

If you’re a new player, take this time to level up your units using the free ducks given out as login bonuses and use Apples on your units to increase their stats. I won’t get too into that here but there are tons of guides online to help you out if you need some assistance.

Once you have some good units ready to fight, it’s on to the quests! There are a ton to choose from but there’s definitely an efficient way to go about everything.

New or old, focus on either Virtual Classic or Keyboard Resonance first depending on which units you have. You get Musical Notes 2020 (used in the Item Exchange to exchange for units from previous collabs) by completing these quests and collecting more and more of the units (which you need to do anyway to Bug Max them) so you’re best off collecting the many, many rewards of 390 Musical Notes 2020 before actually doing the Standby Party quest.

Doing more difficult levels of the quest gets you higher Bug counts but don’t feel discouraged if you’re only able to do the lower level quests. You’ll be leveling up over and over again as a newbie and each level up means a refill of energy! So you’ll be making progress in no time.

Now the focus is definitely on Bug Max-ing these units. Bug Max nets you two extra drops which means Bug Maxing following units faster. You can also use those Musical Notes 2020 that you receive to get Fruitful Future Hatsune Miku from the Item Exchange. You can Bug Max her for 450 Notes and she’ll be able to help you in the Virtual Classic Quest. Pair her up with Rin and Len V4X and any other unit capable of breaking Damage Panels without being injured and you’ll be able to take out the Virtual Classic quest over and over!

If your units are lacking, I’d definitely suggest starting with KAITO and Bug Maxing him first before moving on to the others as KAITO is super effective against both Luka and MEIKO.

While you can totally Bug Max these units without the help of multiplayer, the yields for multiplayer play are absolutely amazing and I highly recommend playing multiplayer if you can.

Spiral Scream Kagamine Len

Crash Fever_2020-02-16-11-46-09.jpg

In addition to getting the KAITO, Luka, and MEIKO units when completing their respective quests, each quest has a chance of the 6* unit Spiral Scream Kagamine Len appearing. If he appears and you beat the quest, you’ll receive one unit with a set number of Bugs depending on the quest difficulty. Higher difficulties yield higher Bugs.

There’s no other way to obtain this Len unit so good luck Bug Maxing him!

Daily Quest: Singin’ Orchestra

Don’t worry about having a Bug Max unit for this quest; it drops the same thing every time. You’re allowed to play this quest once a day and it’ll drop a 6* Concert Princess Snow Miku 2020 with 11 Bugs each time. You have to play the quest nine days during the event to get to Bug Max! Make sure to play it every day in order to max out the unit.

Guerrilla Quest: On Air! Guerrilla Live Show

This special Guerilla Quest is also an easy one to finish but I definitely recommend using multiplayer for it! Having a Bug Max unit is a nice bonus but 100% unnecessary thanks to the drop mechanics. Any Bug Max units will net extra drops but they’re all enhancement units. Here’s the run down of the multiplayer drops for the quest:

  • 1 Player: 1x Chibi Performers Miku and Franklin 1 Bug
  • 2 Players: 1x Chibi Performers Miku and Franklin 1 Bug, 1x Chibi Performers Miku and Franklin 2 Bug
  • 3 Players: 1x Chibi Performers Miku and Franklin 1 Bug, 1x Chibi Performers Miku and Franklin 2 Bug, 1x Chibi Performers Miku and Franklin 3 Bug
  • 4 Players: 1x Chibi Performers Miku and Franklin 1 Bug, 1x Chibi Performers Miku and Franklin 2 Bug, 1x Chibi Performers Miku and Franklin 3 Bug, 1x Chibi Performers Miku and Franklin 4 Bug

As you can see, it definitely adds up when you play multiplayer!

In addition, playing multiplayer will net you Polygons. You’ll receive 50 Polygons for the first ten players you play with and 10 Polygons for the next 89. That’s enough for a few pulls from the Hatchers!

While this unit isn’t exactly amazing overall, it’s definitely worth Bug Maxing for the Bug Max bonuses.

Standby Party

The Standby Party quest is where you get the Musical Notes 2020 that you can exchange for previous years’ units in the Item Exchange. The Wizard level will likely be most accessible to new players as it focuses on Damage Panels which many of the VOCALOID units can deal with. Ultimate, on the other hand, focuses on Protected Panels which are a completely different game. However, the new MEIKO unit is capable of dealing with both so she’ll make a great addition to the team.

The Wizard level quest will net you 100 Musical Notes 2020 per solo run with an additional 20 for Bug Maxed. As always, running the quest with others will work better for drops but isn’t required.

Score Attack: Aim at the Top!

This quest is by far the most difficult. With five stages of increasing difficulty, it’s definitely a challenge. Only try it if you’ve got quite the team!

Returning Quests

There are multiple returning quests as well all offering the chance to get units from previous years’ collaborations! You’ll have to decide if these quests are worth doing or if farming Musical Notes 2020 would work better for you.

Note that one quest from MIKU Museum 2016, Frosty Diva, will likely end up on your list of quests to grind as the unit dropped is used as Awakening material for several of the older collab units.

The Hatchers

These two Hatchers both have the chance of dropping four collaboration units, two of which are Crypton VOCALOIDS, but each side has a preference towards one of those VOCALOID units. Choose the Miku side for a higher chance at Green String Girl Hatsune Miku and the Rin side for a higher chance at Yellow Camellia Kagamine Rin.

The first pull is a discounted 250 Polygons with each following pull being 500. On the 6th pull, you’re guaranteed to pull one of the four featured units!

You can check out the app itself for more details on all the featured units.

More Information

There are of course packages you can purchase for Polygons and other various items. However, those cost real money and that’s not what this guide is about. I’m just hoping to help out players so they can decide the best way to tackle this giant event. Hopefully it’s been of some help to you!

You can find Crash Fever on the Google Play Store as well as the Apple App Store.

Love Nikki x Hatsune Miku Collab Part 2 Recap

Once again, we’re a bit late covering this event as there’s only about 2 days left. But if fans want to grind hard enough (or if you happen to just have enough stamina lying around), there’s still time to complete the second leg of the Hatsune Miku x Love Nikki collaboration!

About the Collab

This second half of the collaboration is a lot easier for both new and old members alike and a lot less brutal on the wallet. Instead of spending gems like in the first half of the collab, you simply complete levels to obtain “Future Cubes.” These special items let you “rank up” in the collaboration and collect more prizes.

Each level completed nets you between 1 and 3 Future Cubes while in Maiden difficulty and, from my experience, it seems like between 2 and 4 Future Cubes in Princess difficulty.

You need to collect 1,000 Future Cubes to obtain all the items for the regular Hatsune Miku suit, and 2,700 Future Cubes to reach the final reward and obtain all the pieces of the Magical Mirai 2015 Suit.

If you do need a small boost in Stamina, there are packs available to help you out.

Hatsune Miku Suit

The Hatsune Miku suit consists of 5 items, and completing the suit gives you 20 Diamonds. Overall, there’s not anything incredibly special to it, but it’s still a must-have for any Miku lover.

Magical Mirai 2015 Suit

The Magical Mirai 2015 suit consists of 9 items including a foreground item that can be mixed and matched with the Magical Mirai suits from the first half of the collaboration. Completing it gives you 20 Diamonds.

Once again, this suit isn’t quite as impressive looking compared to the other Magical Mirai suits, BUT it’s a great way to get good items for free! Many of these items are high ranking in various parts of the game and are definitely worth grabbing for that if nothing else.

Love Nikki x Hatsune Miku Collab Review

Usually when I write articles on collaborations, it’s all about how to best spend your time in the collab and how to maximize your benefits. However, the Love Nikki x Hatsune Miku collaboration is incredibly different from the collabs that many Miku fans have come to love. So this time, I’ll be doing a bit of a break down and a bit of a review.

The Basics

The collaboration itself is based on the plot of trying to find Miku Magical Mirai 2018. In this collaboration, each Miku is a different Miku and there are three of them to find: Magical Mirai 2016, Magical Mirai 2017, and Magical Mirai 2018 with 2018 being the “finale” so to speak. However, if you’re lucky, you may manage to find her before the other Mikus!

You can also obtain Rin and Len suits (full themed outfits are called “suits” in the game) although they seem more like small bonuses than anything else compared to the complexity of the Miku suits you obtain in game.

Obtaining the Suits

Unlike in many of the Miku collabs we’ve grown to love and hate at the same time because of the endless grinding and all of the level caps that give older players more of a chance at getting the exclusive items/units, the Love Nikki collaboration takes a different approach. Some would argue it’s a much fairer approach. Free to Play players would definitely agree that the time sink of grinding would be far more fair.

This is because the entire event is based around in-game currency called “Diamonds” which are essentially the Love Nikki version of “Pay to Win” currency. While you can obtain Diamonds through quests, completing suits, and other ways as you go throughout the game, the quickest way by far is to just exchange your real life money for the Diamonds.

The main area for the collaboration

The entire event is just exploring the Hatsune Miku Magical Mirai pavilion using your Diamonds. You get one free chance per day which won’t get you anywhere since the event is going on for less than a week (December 25th until December 31st at 23:59 [UTC-8]). Each exploration nets you a single Magic Cube. Collecting certain amounts of cubes will allow you to hit milestones and get special suits.

The milestones and their most common rewards are as follows:

20 Magical Cubes: Kagamine Rin or Len
50 Magical Cubes: Kagamine Rin or Len
120 Magical Cubes: Magical Mirai 2016 Miku
170 Magical Cubes: Magical Mirai 2017 Miku
265 Magical Cubes: Magical Mirai 2018 Miku + Magical Mirai Stage

There have been people pulling the rewards out of this order but most players will pull in the order listed.

Each exploration after the initial free one will cost you 30 Diamonds and you can choose to do bulk explorations of 10 for 300 Diamonds. If you’re interested in a full cost breakdown, you can check out the Reddit post here for more information. Thankfully, I had a lot of Diamonds left over from when I was addicted to Love Nikki several years ago so I was able to collect the Magical Cubes with no problem.

Other available suits

Each suit contains 6 or more pieces and completing the suits nets you gems, coins, and even special pose packs. The item descriptions are actually really cute especially for Magical Mirai 2017 which refer to lyrics of Sand Planet / Dune.

Adding all of the items obtained would make this article painfully long for mobile users. However, you can follow our Facebook where we’ll post breakdowns of each suit and then update this article with links to those breakdowns.
