Earlier this month, I reported that a new edition in the Parasite Eve franchise would be making it’s way to both the PSP and mobile phones. I also promised that I would be forthcoming with any further news about the game, and here it is!
Square Enix’s director of the project, Hajime Tabata, had a few details to share. Not many, but enough to keep us wanting more! He has indicated that Parasite Eve: The 3rd Birthday will be a true third-person shooter with the possibility of of some online action, but his team is still investigating the infrastructure versus adhoc possibilities that are available to them.
Also released were a few story line details: Aya Brea remains as the heroine in the game as she fights to eliminate “The Twisted”, who act as her antagonists this time around. She has a brand new ability at her disposal called overdrive, which will allow her to “cross time” in her fight. There is still no release date in sight as of yet, but again… I’ll keep you posted!
