We suggest a way to quantize, using Berezin–Toeplitz quantization, a compact hyperkähler manifold (equipped with a natural 3-plectic form), or a compact integral Kähler manifold of complex dimension n regarded as a (2n−1)-plectic manifold. We show that quantization has reasonable semiclassical properties.
