Generation of Chaos PSP

Japanese RPG crosses over.

Tokyo-based developer Idea Factory is taking its popular Generation of Chaos series outside of Japan for the first time with a PSP version. You can see some screenshots here.

GoC puts you in charge of a teeny tiny kingdom which you have to build up and strengthen as you expand throughout the land of Duke.

We're promised real-time army battles with up to sixty characters, customisable troops and commanders and the option to form alliances with your friendly neighbours. Or just kill them all, if you'd prefer.

The game will be published by Nippon Ichi, the people who also brought us LaPucelle: Tactics, Disgaea and Phantom Brave, in the US next spring. There's no word on a European release yet, but we'll keep you posted.
