Vanillaware, the Japanese studio behind the glorious Dragon's Crown and the fantastic Odin Sphere: Leifthrasir, has a new game in the works called 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim. The project was originally announced quite a while back, but we've seen very little of it since. All we know is that it sports George Kamitani's insanely good signature art style and it features a sci-fi setting packed with huge mechs. Yeah, it sounds pretty great doesn't it?
Anyway, the title's resurfaced thanks to the appearance of its official English website, confirming that the game's heading West at some point. Here's hoping that we get to see the release in action soon.
The title's coming to both PlayStation 4 and Vita in Japan, but there's no mention of platforms on the aforementioned English site. It's safe to assume that it'll arrive on Sony's home console, but as with many Japanese games these days, there's doubt hanging over a localised Vita version. We wouldn't get your hopes up until it's been confirmed.
What do you make of 13 Sentinels? Could it turn out to be something special? Show your piloting skills in the comments section below.

The circumstances make you hope for a Switch release even more, especially after it brought I Am Setsuna here (the game that HAD come out on Vita in Japan, dagnabit!). Then again, no point in bemoaning Vita in advance either - I mean, how many people expected Drive Girls to arrrive in Europe?
In any case, more Vanillaware is great. I got Odin Sphere on Vita last year and it blew me away.
I still don't know what this game's about, but I'm still wildly excited for it.
@nhSnork Playing Odin Sphere on the Vita atm. It's a bit repetitive, but the combat is fun and I love the storybook visual style.
I'll definitely pick this up on the Vita should they happen to localize that version.
@nhSnork I liked it too. Even got the platinum, but I after beating it with one character, it all felt incredibly repetitive.
Did you not mind fighting the same enemies over and over again?
Is this game rpg like odin or action like dragon crown, I hope we'll find out at e3.
Been waiting for this game news for ages
If it comes with an art book like dragons crown I'll be all over that in an instant.
@naruball I didn't even mind it in Stories, to my surprise. These game can make such routines worth it.
