I was logged into a computer on my college campus, and I just received an email from XSeed. They announced three games today, two of them are for PSP.
DUNGEON MAKER: HUNTING GROUND
An original title developed specifically for the PSP system, DUNGEON MAKER: HUNTING GROUND offers addictive game play with a simulation dungeon creation element and real-time battles hunting for monsters to collect items, gold, and to fulfill requirements to complete the various quests given by townspeople.
The Story
An ambitious but novice dungeon maker arrives in a small town known to suffer periodic attacks from violent monsters. He buys a vast plot of land at the outskirts of the town to create a grand dungeon in hopes of luring in various enemy monsters which to hunt to collect gold and items. He envisions his complete dungeon to be one so appealing as to lure the legendary Wandering Demon. Defeating this menacing monster would free the townspeople from the fear he casts upon them, while winning acclaim as a true dungeon maker for the “Architect.”
Key Features

Enjoy the vast selection of building materials to customize your dungeon and complete quests to access the rarer items from the wide array of weapons, armors, and accessories to upgrade your warrior.

BRAVE STORY: NEW TRAVELER
An original title created specifically for the PSP system and developed by Game Republic (Genji series), BRAVE STORY: NEW TRAVELER features beautifully rendered 3D graphics, an epic tale with a host of colorful supporting characters, and a traditional turn-based battle system easy for beginners to pickup and play but with enough depth and innovative features for seasoned gamers.
The Story
On a day that starts out like any other, an 11-year-old boy’s life is changed forever. As the main character and his friend Miki pass a leisurely afternoon, Miki suddenly collapses from an unknown illness. When the girl shows no sign of waking, the main character grows distraught over not being a better friend and not having the means to save her. Suddenly, a strange voice offers him a second chance: “Beyond the door you can change your destiny!” He soon leaves the real world and journeys to the world of Vision, where, as a novice “Traveler,” he will surmount myriad ordeals in hopes of ultimately meeting with the Goddess of Fortune to have a single wish granted. Valuable friendships, unbounded courage, and his own personal growth will all prove indispensable as he seeks out his destiny: a life-changing adventure and the discovery of a hero inside an ordinary kid.
Key Features
A role-playing game with an epic tale, introducing unique characters with distinct personalities and leading the player through the imaginative world of Vision as he learns to become a hero.
Traditional turn-based battle system enhanced by innovative features based on the story’s themes of friendship, courage, and growth:
Friendship - Form bonds with party members to create new, cooperative skills.
Courage – Use “brave power” (BP) to unleash powerful special abilities, continually refilling the gauge as you devastate the enemy.
Growth - The hero’s main weapon will evolve as he collects the gemstones needed to meet with the Goddess of Fortune. New accessories can be forged by collecting and combining the right materials. Each character can also unlock a one-of-a-kind innate ability.
Beautifully rendered 3D graphics with vibrant colors and a distinct visual style, highlighted by polished character and enemy movement, graphical representations of sound effects, and a unique animation for each special ability – all exceptionally well drawn and intricately textured.
Collect special birds which you can use in mini-games or trade in for rare and precious weapons, armor, and items.
Network with friends to trade your birds, or game-share a mini-game to have friends assist in capturing rare birds.
BRAVE STORY: NEW TRAVELER is scheduled for release in Q3 2007.
OMG, when I heard about Brave Story: New Traveler coming stateside, I jumped out of my seat with excitement. If some may have known, I've been wanting Brave Story on PSP extremely bad, since the graphics look PS2 quality, fast loading times, and I hear its definitely one of the best PSP RPGs, and its completely original (although based on the anime movie).
I never heard of Dungeon Maker before, but I'll be keeping an eye on it. XSeed has sure made me happy today. :D
