Famitsu has unveiled a new 3DS/PSP RPG. First scans are now available.
Xseed teased a new game release yesterday, using a picture of a T-Rex and a blade of grass. As many suspected, this game is indeed the dungeon crawler UnchainBlades ReXX. A preview page from Nintendo Power magazine reveals its U.S. title as simply Unchained Blades.

"Star Fox 64 3D, Inazuma Eleven Strikers and Brink are this week´s recommendation in Japan. Are you getting a new game this week?"
Video game voice actress/singer Nana Mizuki sold 55,000 and 52,000 copies of her “Scarlet Knight” and “Pop Master” singles, respectively, to rank them #2 and #3 on Oricon’s CD singles chart for the April 11-17 week in Japan. Thus, she became the first voice actress or actor (seiyu) to put two singles in the weekly top 3 simultaneously under her real name.
"Pop Master" served as the theme song for mobile game Idol wo Tsukurou, while "Unbreakable," the second song on the "Pop Master" single, is the opening theme song for the UnchainBlades Rexx game for the Nintendo 3DS and Sony PSP systems.
It's interesting that Japan has a lot of video game theme songs make it to the top of the music charts, while in many Western countries the idea would seem laughable. It would be pretty awesome if one day the English theme songs were played on the radio and on tv in the West.
Want to see more, so far I have my system & SSF IV ready to go.
I knew that the 3DS and PSP were in the same ballpark power wise. Let the ports begin because the install base for this game will be huge when 3DS PSP and NGP can play the same game in different ways. This is going to be a good year for portable gaming.
Oh man, you should see who is working on this game. It involved someone from Grandia and another from Lunar (yes I know both are developed by Game Arts) and multiple artists for different characters. Siliconera is where I got the info :)
EDIT: (copy and pasted from Siliconera, just because I want everyone to know, but I just copied this paragraph and included the link to the article)
Famitsu reports Takahashi Hino, known for his work on Grandia, is the scenario designer. Toshio Akashi, famous for Lunar, is the director of UnchainBlades ReXX. Nobuo Uematsu is composing the game’s theme song.
