SAN JOSE, Calif., (June 25, in the year of our Lord
2013) – Leading video games publisher and developer
NAMCO BANDAI Games America Inc. today released Project X Zone™
exclusively on the Nintendo 3DS™ system in North America . The
epic crossover title brings together the fiercest and most
popular legacy characters from NAMCO BANDAI Games, Capcom, and
SEGA®’s most beloved franchises to create the ultimate
cross-over Strategy-RPG experience.
Developed by NAMCO BANDAI Games Inc. and MONOLITH SOFT, Project
X Zone features 200 characters including playable characters,
NPCs and enemies from more than 25 historic game franchises by
three of Japan’s most prolific video game companies. In Project
X Zone players will use a team of two characters known as a Pair
Unit to explore the world within the game. An additional
character known as a Solo Unit can be combined with the Pair
Unit to assist in battles with a Solo Attack as well as augment
the attacks available for players to execute. Throughout the
game, epic battles are waiting to erupt at a moment’s notice.
Players will have to master an array of screen-busting moves
including Solo Attacks, Support Attacks, Cross Hits, and Special
Attacks in order to defeat a multitude of foes.
“Project X Zone successfully combines beloved characters,
strategic gameplay and an epic storyline into a groundbreaking
video game experience,” said Chris Gilbert, Senior Vice
President of Sales and Marketing for NAMCO BANDAI Games America
Inc. “The fast-paced tactical battles and sheer volume of fan
service will delight any fan of NAMCO BANDAI Games, Capcom, and
SEGA.”
Project X Zone takes place in a world surrounded by a hidden
chaos with shadows and evil lurking beneath the peaceful cover
of everyday life. When a rift in time and space suddenly
appears, a doorway to various universes is opened allowing both
heroes and villains from different worlds to cross paths.
Players will be able to take control of a huge selection of
paired heroes including favorites such as Jin and Xiaoyu
(TEKKEN®), Zephyr and Leanne (Resonance of Fate), to X and Zero
(Mega Man® X) and discover the cause of the rift and stop evil
from coming through and spreading into their world.
Project X Zone is currently available in stores with an ESRB

Tobacco Reference, Fantasy Violence, Mild Blood, Mild Language,
Partial Nudity, Suggestive Themes) at a MSRP of $39.99 and
