Record of Agarest War - Image 1Through 1Up, we just got word that Famitsu has news of a new RPG coming to PS3. Called Record of Agarest War, the game is a collaborative effort from Idea Factory, Red Entertainment, and Compile Heart.

According to the 1Up report, the game actually spans five generations, with new heroes replacing the previous ones with each new generation. Furthermore, the game will take place across five continents, with players venturing through the continents in each generation. Also, the next hero you'll get in succeeding generations will depend on the heroine you partner up with (and possibly marry) in each generation.

With regard to the Battle system, 1Up reports that battles will take place on battle points, with the turn-based gameplay using a standard grid system.

In any case, expect this game to come sooner than you're prepared for, as it's scheduled to hit store shelves in Japan on September 27.

no room for it...

for late this year i'm thinking Heavenly Sword, Assassin's Creed, Rachet and Clank, Drakes Fortune, and MGS4 (if it makes it this october), and NBA2K8... so this game will have to wait... even GTAIV is on the waiting list for me... just too many games.

.

Possibly a sequel or remake of Record of Lodoss War? (a Dreamcast RPG)

maybe

I was thinking the same thing, but if it is they will be making significant changes if its turn based.... In any case I would buy it if had anything to do with Lodoss War that was one of my favs back then.
