Level-5 does move fast, don't they? After announcing two new PSP games just a couple of days back, they have now released the first screenshots for one of the two titles they unveiled, Ushiro, at their Level-5 Vision 2008 conference.

For those of you who missed the introduction on the game, Ushiro is a horror RPG where you play the character of a shinigami or a ghost. The shinigami in this game takes on a much bigger role than just scaring the pants off people, and instead becomes some sort of personal genie-slash-guardian angel, having the ability to fulfill the wishes of a person. Not only that, you can also observe and possess your chosen one. Kinda scary to think that another being is taking over you, huh?

Actually, the main objective of the shinigami is to "keep people from doing bad things, like committing suicide or crimes". You'll play Reiichiro, the main character, either by possessing him, or by following him around.You can also level him up b y going up against the "Form" or the enemies in the game.

Here are the screenshots. They're looking grungy cool, too, so we're sure you'll enjoy it as much as we did. Just click on the thumbs to enlarge.

its growing alright

it may be growing but we still dont have a guarantee that it will be released overseas. If u look at all the PSP games that are out in Japan u will realize that we only have a fraction of those in America or any other places
