North America and Europe Rejoice! SEGA has officially announced theat their highly anticipated action strategy title will be coming to North America and Europe as early as this autumn. The game’s development is header by the brilliant Shuntaro Tanaka who is also responsible for such classics as the Skies of Arcadia.

With the official word from SEGA, the anticipation for this game has reached immense heights. The game itself is set in a fictional world that displays strong characteristics found in Europe during the 1930s. The title itself is lined up to be one of the most graphically exhaustive projects to date. The development team is going through painful designing to assure one of the most graphically rich titles ever to be released. One of the major components used to achieve this is that the team will be using a “canvas” effect to render sprites, landscapes, and overall scenery on the battlefield giving the map and the area a much better visual appeal.

With all of these implementations and the obvious labor being put behind this game, we can not expect Sega to release many more details other than the fact that it will be released sometime in the autumn. In the meantime, try not to let the anticipation kill you inside.
