At a press conference in Tokyo on Saturday, Capcom unveiled Lost Planet: Extreme Condition, an upcoming sci-fi themed FPS for the Xbox 360.
To whet appetites for the game, Capcom released a set of lush screenshots, a trailer, and a Japanese-language official website.
The game promises a cinematic gaming experience set in a frozen environment inhabited by hostile indigenous creatures, as well as invading monsters.
It will also feature the ability to jump into various heavily armed mech-like vehicles to travel the vast arctic environments and eliminate enemies.
Capcom also revealed the game will be the fruit of a collaboration between the creators of Onimusha and the creators of Devil May Cry, and is set to be released in Winter 2006:
Taking full advantage of the Xbox 360’s unprecedented power, Lost Planet will contain an unrivalled level of detail as advanced light sourcing is used to ensure a realistic presentation. Enormous world maps unfold as players battle the menacing invaders during blistering weather conditions throughout vast snow fields and deserted cities. Fostering a real-time loading system, players can expect a seamless experience that leaves them completely immersed. Multiplayer modes add to the value of Lost Planet by allowing players to partake in intense team battles via the Xbox Live® online game service.
