Aya Brea's game gets some details - Image 1


Hajime Tabata recently went on record to explain some of the goings on in the latest Parasite Eve title, The 3rd Birthday, noting that Aya Brea's new mission is going to involve a new brand of enemy and a lot of gunplay.

Perhaps of import for those folks who loved the Parasite Eve games is that this game is set firmly after the resolution of the previous games, seeing as Aya Brea is now 35, numerically speaking. Her powers, as great as they are, will probably be tested against a new enemy, which Tabata called The Twisted. Luckily, Brea has a new power called overdrive, which will allow her to both fight and understand the nature of The Twisted.

Tabata also said that the sequel would be a "true third person shooter" that would be different from Dirge of Cerberus. He also mentioned that Square Enix was working with another development team to make the game, but didn't mention the people the company was working with.

As for the game itself, Tabata mentioned that the game would may have wireless play, though it wasn't sure yet if it would be net based or ad-hoc. Lastly, it was also revealed that the game's scenario and design were nearing completion.

Keep checking QJ for more updates to The 3rd Birthday. In the meantime, feel free to speculate as to how the Overdrive power connects with Aya Brea's mitochondria-based abilities.

For a Western release on this one. Seems we're almost entirely reliant on Eastern companies for decent PSP titles now :(
