There are two scans for Project X Zone that you can find after the break.

  • luchador

    AKA Namco x Capcom 2 :D YAY!!

    • luchador

      +Sega :)

    • ErinDwight

      Lets just hope its as Good! You never know… I’m just happy they didn’t add characters that didn’t Mach the style… If it’s an RPG, I believe Sonic wouldn’t fit in… But, Capcom what with your obsession with Chris and Jill? I know they are great, but there’s so many to pic from… But, who am I to judge? *le sigh*

    • ErinDwight

      Fixing typos:
      *What’s
      *pick
      *match

    • SparktehFox

      Remember, Sonic has been in an RPG of his very own and it was rather good. Also, I would guess they chose Chris and Jill as they are the most prominent team of the RE series. It’s true that there are others but they don’t have the recognition.

      I hope Felicia returns. I thought it was cool that they paired her up with King from Tekken.

    • ErinDwight

      True enough…

    • Kct16

      @sparkletehfox umm dude. Leon? I mean…its Leon. lol

    • NYAHH

      ohhh god !! ,, they hsould do it like Fire Emblem ,, atleast 3D xD

    • SparktehFox

      @Kct16
      I said most prominent TEAM not main chars. Leon and Claire/Ada/Krauser is not exactly a staple of the RE universe, unlike Chris and Jill.

    • Spazzy Cactus

      well… considering all these people actually have weapons and not just a ball of fur i can see why they didnt pick sonic….coulda picked shadow though

  • loganku

    OMG!!!!!!!

  • Walt

    i fear it may not get localized tho. Namco x Capcom didnt, and this looks fairly similar :( Hoping i’m wrong, but that is a bit of a bummer :(

  • sammaster9

    Well looks like my guesses were way off.

  • joseph gregory sharp

    Well :[ no mega man game.

    • Rod

      Megaman X is in it though.

  • yeahguy

    i was expecting alot more
    meh

    • Doughnut

      Me too :(

  • Toad75

    ULALA!!!!! FTW!!!! 4EVA!!!!

    sorry for yelling….

    ULALA!!!!!!!!!!!

  • silverio

    thhis can either be an awsome game or it can be a horible one

    • ErinDwight

      Indeed, let’s keep our hopes up!

  • cm93

    well it looks…

    interesting…

    gotta see a little more :P

  • thatguyoverthere

    I just hope that they have a character from Jet Set Radio in it. It’d be a nice way to increase interest for the HD remastering.

  • Perry

    Is this like Fire Emblem?

    • tob2007

      Yes!
      Exciting, innit?

    • Green Reuben

      I hope neither overshadows the other (or either company foresees it happening and we only get one)

    • Perry

      Yeah sounds awesome!

  • Vake

    Looks like Fire Emblem to some extent
    :D

  • EpicLight*

    Wow, this looks like it resembles somewhat of the same RPG style of Golden sun. I am immediately interested, even though I don’t know half of the characters.

    • Derpsicle

      You’re right, got me thinking the same thing.

    • Green Reuben

      battle scenes have the same feel but I imagine it will be vastly different

  • gabriel

    i really wanted a fighter this sucks

  • Kameron

    Y U NO, put Amatarasu! CAPCOM!!

    • Boosos

      WAAAT??

    • Nap1400

      Calm down. This isn’t even all the characters yet. I bet we’ll see more as the details keep coming.

  • http://hybrilynx.net/ Hybrilynx

    pixels? what a waste i mean seriously.

    • Belinni

      I know right? Why couldn’t they make the game full 3D graphics so they could waste more space and have less content for our enjoyment?

      I want less thinking about the player and more greedy bastards! I expected better from Capcom…

    • Green Reuben

      artistic choice, I’m unsure if it will prove worthwhile, it would be wasting the 3d capablilities of the 3ds

    • Naner

      Sprite-based games still look pretty darn cool in 3D. Have you played Mutant Mudds?

    • http://hybrilynx.net/ Hybrilynx

      space means nothing. 10 years from now we all would probably have 100 GB sd cards and it would be worth $20. and mutant mudds is just no. i barely even beaten the demo. and for some reason i didnt even use the y or b buttons, when they show you how to play. i used the a and x buttons.

      How old is Hybrilynx? His comments look like those of a child who never held a genesis or super Nintendo controller before.

    • Naner

      ABEzilla116 is right…

      @Hybrilynx: If you want to wait 10 years for this game, go ahead. I’d rather have it with simpler visuals and more content this year. And what the hell do the buttons in Mutant Mudds have to do with this topic? I’m talking about the 3D effect in sprite-based games.

    • http://NintendoWorlds.net TurboPikachu

      16-bit sprites? I thought the DS era was over…. At least make higher res sprites and shrink them so they look smoother… T-T
      This falls in the same boat as Epic Mickey 2 for me…

      @ABEzilla116 I have an NES and SNES, and I enjoy them very much…
      However, we already had a handheld that did very well with SNES gaphics. It’s called the Game Boy Advance(which btw is my favorite handheld ever.)
      But when you have more powerful hardware, just take advantage of what it’s GPU can achieve….

      Look, when we got to the DS era, the system proved it could achieve N64 visuals. But devs just kept making SNES and GBA ports, and games with 16-bit graphics for it, and that’s one of the reasons why the DS/lite/i/XL is my least favorite Nintendo system ever. Hardware that nobody really took advantage of…

      Now we have in our hands a system that has shown off Wii visuals. Why the heck are developers still putting 16-bit graphics in a 3DS game and slapping a $40 price tag on it… in 2012?!?!?!?

      Look, Mutant Mudds is a great game. But get this: It’s on the eShop for 9 dollars… I’d gladly pay $10 for Epic Mickey 2: PoI, and Project X Zone, but a full $40 3DS card release is absurd!

      @Belinni: Better graphics = less content? I call BS on that one.
      Seriously, play Kid Icarus: Uprising. That game nearly as much content as Super Smash Bros. Brawl, while having graphics almost as good as Brawl’s as well; Not to mention, unlike any other Nintendo first-party game, Uprising has voiced dialogue throughout the entire story mode. Easily one of the best video games I have ever played; and well-worth the 2+ years of anticipation.

    • http://hybrilynx.net/ Hybrilynx

      why bother. besides my optional use of grammar, mostly no one understands either technology, or whats really going on behind the work. also mutant mudds is a waaste of money. mighty switch force was already a waste, not going to do it again.

    • Raven The Great!

      Dude, the specials from what I’ve seen, uses 3d models.

  • Classic Hyper Sonic The Hedgehog A.K.A Rc/AGES

    …That was fast!

  • secret turtle

    OMG this totally looks like super robot taisen og saga endless frontier. Does anyone remmeber or even played that? imagine fire emblem if it was a fighting game. This even has KOS-MOS. im calling it. its endless frontier 2

    • komicturtle92

      That’s because it is. Banpresto are the ones developing this game which is why it’s so similar to Super Robot Taisen.

    • invictus4000

      Yeah, dude! I was thinking the same thing. I beat SRT:OGEF and loved it. The story and stuff was kinda meh but the battle system was freakin’ amazing! So…that is KOS-MOS then?

    • secret turtle

      KOS-MOS is the light purple robot girl shooting lazers out of her chest on page 4. She was a cameo character in endless saga and it looks like they just reused that model.

  • el ps vita es mejor

    looks interesting, i kinda of like the graphics, but they seem kinda of simplistic

    • Green Reuben

      the fact that you kinda like them means that simplistic can be kinda good

    • el ps vita es mejor

      i like them because they seem old school, but for a 3ds game, they seem way to simplistic
      i dont mind them being like that, but i think they could come up with something more special and no i dont mean 3d models, i am talking about a better 2d artstyle
      i mean they are 3 big companies and this is the best they could come up with?

  • Menchi

    Yea! I knew it was going to be something like Namco X Capcom I just hope It’ll be localized (which I kind of doubt) but a guy can dream can’t he….
    by the way I was wondering if it was localized would it be a day one purchase for you guys or girls.

  • Derpsicle

    While it looks interesting, I have to say, it looks like it could have been on the GBA. (And I know, graphics aren’t everything, but still)

  • Wichi

    they are sprites !! the game is fpr DS =D… wait not… is for 3DS then this are shitty graphics

    • horrorgamer01

      The 3DS has better processing power than the DS…

      I hate it when people have no idea what they are talking about. And their spelling for that matter.

  • http://gravatar.com/kayriss Kayriss

    This Is great, another game featuring SFxT characters with a bunch of other franchises mixed In only one problem.

    SEGA WHY U NO INCLUDE SONIC CHARACTERS?

  • uriel

    poop……………….jk well …….

  • Rafa

    looks like super robot taisen endless frontier for ds with better graphics (awesome!)

  • Totheark

    Any talk about localization to teh ‘mericas?

  • Sadsa

    Sprites reminds me of a bigger version of card saga wars

  • http://www.johnnonintendo.wordpress.com Jarrah Davis

    Looks fun, hope it gets localized

  • Tayo

    Yes! X is my favorite iteration of Rockman! Now, we only need to get X into the next Smash Bros.

  • KaitsuCH3

    One game and One game only that resembles this.
    Namco X Capcom
    Localize please~!

  • tappy

    TBH im a little dissapointed. We have seen what the 3ds can do now, what with games like Resident Evil: Revelations and Kid Icarus: Uprising, and the game comprises 3 very big developers im just a little dissapointed in how it looks so far and the concept. But you never know it could get better?

    • luchador

      UGH! God some of you get spoiled quick!Not EVERYTHING needs to made at max specs. Shhesh!! The games that benefit from great graphics will. This one doesn’t need them. Look up Capcom X Namco videos to get a clue of what to expect-ish. There will be an overview battle grid before battle a-la FF Tactics/ Fire Emblem and it won’t be uber detailed. Just play the damn game for what it’s worth and quit moping!!

    • el ps vita es mejor

      i dont mind the game not showing the max power of the 3ds and being 2d, but i gotta admit the graphics do seem really simple considering they are some of the best companies of the industry
      i think they could have come up with something better. not something that shows the true power for the 3ds, but a better artstyle at least

  • iiShura

    But… I thought it was a fighting game not rpg :(

    • Sarah

      And THANK GOD it’s not a Fighting game *dances*

    • Tylos

      WHO WANTS ANOTHER FIGHTING GAME!? All I need is SSB4 and I’m satisfied, that game is coming in a few years atleast so better than having 20 fighting games in 2 years and almost nothing else… Well ok not 20 but still…

  • TSK

    Looks to be on a similar battle engine as the Super Robot Wars Saga Endless Frontier games(they’re even using the same font for the damage indicators). I’m very OK with this.

    Also, sprites can be beatiful.

  • miiworld2

    I was about to say NYET to it… but after seeing the scans, I can say YEAAAH instead.

    And thank God it’s not a fighting game, which I thought it would’ve been.

  • Doughnut

    I am so very very disappointed :(

  • Luigi’sM

    I’m a little disappointed to not see Bayonetta in the character roster as I felt she would have made a good addition being this looks like an RPG, but never mind, it looks interesting.

  • Joseph

    Oh how disappointing…

  • bob

    this game looks rubbish, should be one of those e-shop games.

    • Sarah

      Ok children, listen up! 2D does not automatically make it suitable to be an eshop game. Many 2D games in fact have A LOT more content than their 3D polygonal brethren. especially when they’re RPG’s. If u don’t like it, don’t buy it. No one will miss you :)

    • stone2191

      Completeley Agree with Sarah,

      and for me… The graphics is awesome …

    • http://NintendoWorlds.net TurboPikachu

      @Sarah:

      I call BS. Kid Icarus Uprising has visuals on par with Super Smash Bros Brawl, and has about as much content as Brawl. Kid Icarus: Uprising is one of the most content-packed games the 3DS has ever seen, and it still is able to pull of Wii-standard graphics.

      Also, I have yet to see a 2D game that can even touch the amount of content Kid Icarus: Uprising has to offer.
      Why would I say this, you ask? Because many developers slap together a game for profit, not the gamers’ satisfaction.

      Unlike most developers, Masahiro Sakurai (the creator of Smash Bros. and Kid Icarus Uprising) is passionate about the games he makes, and puts in his honest 100% best effort into making games, making the prettiest visuals the system will allow him to, all while stuffing as more content in one 3DS game, than many developers even bother to put into certain 360/PS3/Wii games.

    • Beat

      @TurboPikachu

      No. I call BS on you.
      A game in 2d that can touch Kid Icarus? Surpass it, even? Easy. The World Ends With You. It also has a way better story.

      And, to be clear, Kid Icarus’s graphics are NOT on par with brawl. Sure, they are both very good for the systems they’re on, but they can’t compare as much as you want them to.

      And I’m very sure Masahiro Sakurai isn’t working on THIS game.

      Basically Don’t discriminate on games with 2d.

    • http://nintendoworlds.net TurboPikachu

      @Beat:

      I’ve never been able to find a copy of TWEWY… I apologize if it has more content than Kid Icarus, but you get my point, Uprising has more content than any other >”3DS game”< available today

      And again, I apologize if I exaggerated, but once again, you get my point that the Uprising shows off how the 3DS can do alot more that developers are putting to use. I'm trying to say "when you have something good lying around, USE IT!"

      Also, when I talked about Masahiro Sakurai, I meant how he put his 100% best efforts into SSB, SSBM, SSBB, and KI:U. I never said he worked on THIS game. :/

    • Raven The Great!

      @Turbo
      If a measly “DS game” was able to blow Kid Icarus outta ta water in terms of content, what do ya think the extra 1700+ MB is gonna do for ‘em?

  • Joba

    WHY ARE YOU PEOPLE NOT IN HYPE MODE? THIS GAME LOOKS EPIC.

    Fail community ):

      Not everyone springs into fanboy mode at the announcement of an RPG.

  • jASON

    people should know graphics don’t make a game fun or good..

  • Pixle

    I am disappoint.

  • stone2191

    This game would better be localized though !

  • DavidW

    I hope that Phoenix and Maya are in this game.

  • Evangal

    Only thing I’m upset about this game so far is that there’s been no inclusion of Imca from Valkyria Chronicles 3. They have Kurt and Reala, so Imca shouldn’t be too hard to include.

  • George

    …pixels?
    :megusta:

    • Beat

      Not sure if you’re serious, but I love pixels and sprites. o.O

  • mrgrimrjs

    new pics were uploaded on IGN It looks like it will play just like Super Robot Tyson which was also a crossover game and it played awesome i cant wait

  • spacemanpurple

    wow… people complain about epic mickey’s graphics… this isn’t any better!!! (Not saying the games look bad… they look good and fun :3)

  • Xei

    Meh.
    This seems like one of those games I’ll pick up when it’s on sale. :/

  • Raven The Great!

    I love RPGs, so this’ll be in ma radar
