Sadly not that I know of. Though there's literally Jack shit planned for Vita in the west. So Sony better bring it over if it wants to stay in the market in the west.

New info since OP. More info coming out that JS will bring it over to the west. Also there's going to be a new PV on the 21st.

Also it's not in the video itself, but the thumbnail that page uses for it indicates that you can choose a girl main character.

It vaguely reminds me of God Eater, actually, except with more bondage and flashier attacks. Still, I think this will be pretty cool; I'm glad it's getting a US release.

The team of God Eater is also working on this, no wonder it looks similar

It was really bothering how slow he moved for most of it. But I guess there's a run button after all.

Yeah, that explains a lot. I thought they had a lot of good ideas in God Eater, but the product felt flawed to me overall. That may have been because I only played single player, when it seemed obviously built for multiplayer gameplay, but this looks like a pretty good refinement of some of their ideas.

It has PvP, and made by the GE team. That's an instant buy for me right there.

You might want to try God Eater 2, it improved on Gameplay in many areas. Not like it without any flaws though

The game is looking pretty friggin' sweet. Great artstyle and fun looking gameplay.

Between this and Soul Sacrifice, the Vita is making me love MonHun style games. Now let's see a localization announcement!

Make Your Freedom Wars AI Assistant A Tsundere Using Speech Synthesis
Quote:
 
One of the most prominent features in Sony’s upcoming multiplayer action game, Freedom Wars, is the android AI assistants who will be helping you fight the giant beasts in the game and rescue civilians. During an interview with Famitsu magazine, three key developers talked about these androids while discussing customization and multiplayer.

God Eater developer Shift’s game designer Toshiyuki Yasui, Sonic the Hedgehog 4 developer Dimps’ director Takashi Tsukamoto, and SCE World Wide Studio’s Junichi Yoshizawa begin by sharing a little information on the game’s multiplayer features.

“Freedom Wars will allow up to 8 players to play together, but each player will have their android partners, called ‘Accessories,’ so when you’re playing with 8 people, there will actually be 16 characters moving at once,” says Yoshizawa on the subject of teaming up with allies.

“At first, we also thought ‘can you really do that on PS Vita?’” shares Tsukamoto with a laugh. “However, in addition to the main characters, Yasui and the others wanted the Accessories, weapons, clothing, and faces to be customizable as well.”

“Not only [can you customize] your Accessories’ looks, but you can also enter your own words, and the get your Accessories to say them out loud using synthesized speech,” adds Yasui. To us, this sounds like a feature that would only really work in Japanese, due to it being a language that consists almost entirely of syllables, which means there’s very little room for mispronunciation.

“You can make them call you ‘Master,’ or have them say ‘No’ in a tsundere-like fashion, so everyone will get to freely set their Accessories’ lines any way they like,” emphasizes Tsukamoto. “Things such as weapons can also be customized, so taking that and going into cooperative or competitive multiplayer will also be something to look forward to.”

Additionally, Yasui mentions that while he can’t say more for the time being, the developers will be sharing more information on the game in the near future. He also says that so far, the game has such so much content that he doubts they’ll even be able to announce everything by the time of its release.

Finally, the Freedom Wars developers share a message for the fans:

Yasui: “The theme of the game is ‘suppression and freedom’. Please look forward to seeing what kind of freedom awaits you at the end of your million-year prison sentence.”

Tsukamoto: “Slice, shoot, and save civilians. Our goal is to make a multiplayer action game we’ve yet to see. By the end of the year, there will be an opportunity to try it out, so please let us know what you think when the time comes.”

Yoshizawa: “Being able to play for a short while, a long time, together with friends, or against them—such a freedom in play-style is another one of the game’s themes, so we’re working on making something that different people can enjoy. As Tsukamoto mentioned, during an event towards the end of the year, we’re expecting to have our first demo available for you to play, so we’d love it if you could try out the game’s first action part we’ve worked on.”

8 players at once? I'm impressed.

Yeah, that sounds pretty nifty. Shame the US release will probably lose the voice synthesis option though. I think it'd be too hard to have anything that could accurately pronounce English, with all the stupid exceptions and stuff in our language.

Hmmmm . . . with all the AI partner customization, I wonder what kind of equipment customization we'll see? I was absolutely in love with the way you could create some pretty crazy bullets in God Eater, and would leave to see a unique system like that crop up here.
