Sacado de Vandal...
Speaking to Japanese magazine Dorimaga this week, Team Ninja head Tomonobu Itagaki offered a few more typically cryptic details about Dead or Alive Code: Cronus, one of his upcoming as-yet-unrevealed projects. He won't say what it is as yet, but its theme is apparently "the innocence and cruelty of children," and its stars are the two DOA heroines Kasumi and Ayane.
Announced at the 2002 Tokyo Game Show, Code: Cronus has apparently been many different things over its lifetime. At present, however, Itagaki says it is neither a fighting game like Dead or Alive, nor another "sports fantasy simulation," nor an action game like Ninja Gaiden. Bets on "first-person shooter/dating simulation hybrid" pay off at 12:1.
Itagaki may change his mind regarding this title at any subsequent time, but we expect to see him settle on something around E3. We look forward to it, whatever it might be.
