E.X. Troopers is being written by Dai Sato, who worked on the Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex and Eureka 7 anime series. In order to promote the game, Capcom have contracted anime studio, Satelight, to produce an anime movie, which will be included with Sengoku Basara HD Collection in August.

 

E.X. Troopers is in development for the Nintendo 3DS and PlayStation 3. Capcom will release the game sometime this year, but haven’t specified when.
