Grasshopper Manufacture Developing Evangelion: Sound Impact, A Rhythm Game

More information spilled out about Rebuild of Evangelion: Sound Impact. The developer is a bit of a surprise, it’s Grasshopper Manufacture, the studio behind No More Heroes and Shadows of the Damned. Former Silent Hill composer Akira Yamaoka is in charge of the game’s sound.

That’s the other surprise. Rebuild of Evangelion: Sound Impact is a rhythm music action game, according to magazine leaks. Yamaoka made bold remixes of music from the Rebuild of Evangelion movies for the PSP title. Over 30 songs are included in the game. Music and images are blended together using the "unknown synchro action" system.

Rebuild of Evangelion: Sound Impact will have six types of games. Modes, perhaps? We’re still waiting for actual gameplay details.

Update: A magazine scan just leaked out.
