Shin-Takaoka Station opened on 14 March 2015, the same day the Hokuriku Shinkansen extension from Nagano to Kanazawa entered service. The original 1992 alignment placed the Shinkansen platform about 1.5 km south of Takaoka Station without an interchange to the Johana Line, but in 2005, after lobbying by Toyama Prefecture and Takaoka City, the site was shifted west to a point where the Shinkansen would cross the Johana Line. A Johana Line platform was formally approved on 26 December 2012 -- the line's first new station since Hayashi in 1956 -- and the name Shin-Takaoka was announced on 7 June 2013. Buses began using the south plaza on 10 March 2015 ahead of the formal opening four days later.

The station's north-south concourse displays a 4-metre-tall bronze "Takaoka Grand Helmet" modelled on the Silver Catfish helmet worn by Maeda Toshinaga, the second lord of Kaga, cast in 2009 to mark Takaoka's 400th anniversary.
