Project X Zone 2 is one of those games that you would have never thought could have existed when us bright eyed gamers were used to the idea of game companies being at each other’s throats. Fast forward to today, and it’s crazy when you think about how common crossover games are these days.

Despite its title, what’s technically the third game in Namco’s and Monolith Soft’s turn based strategy series brings together an even wider range of characters from wildly popular series’ like Street Fighter and Resident Evil, to the more obscure franchises like Yakuza, Star Gladiator, and Capcom Fighting All Stars, knowing that all these characters will share a screen with one another is an exciting thought.

The latest batch of screenshots show off some of the heroes and villains that will make an appearance once the 3DS title releases on February 16th. Newcomers displayed include M. Bison, Xenoblade‘s Metalface and Fiora, Ingrid, Ryo Hazuki and Leon S. Kennedy, as well as the returning Ryu, Ken, Estelle, KOS-MOS and T-elos. NPC’s like Ada Wong and Miles Edgeworth show their support, while even non gaming characters like Segata Sanshiro manage to sneak in!

Check out the full screenshot gallery and the latest trailer below. Comment and tell us who you’re most excitped to play with, and if you have no idea what we’re talking about, get caught up with our review of the first game and our E3 impressions of PXZ 2. And as always, make sure to check back with us as more information surfaces!

The long running Tales series has been a big hit with RPG gamers worldwide, but none in the franchise has had as much of a lasting impact as Tales of Symphonia. The Gamecube original and its Wii exclusive sequel, Dawn of the New World, will soon be getting an HD facelift in the form of Tales of Symphonia Chronicles.

Exclusive to the PS3, the collection will include new cover art, costumes for main characters Lloyd and Genis straight from Tales of the Abyss, a remixed soundtrack and other additional content that should be elaborated on in the near future.

Seeing the Symphonia series return is exciting news, but it’s weird that the Wii U isn’t getting a port considering that both games are Nintendo exclusive aside from a Japan only release of the first game on PS2. Either way, more gamers having access to two great RPGs can only be a good thing.

Tales of Symphonia Chronicles is set to release in Japan on October 10th with a North American release in early 2014.
