Capcom announces Steel Battalion for Kinect

As the last game announcement of Microsoft’s Tokyo Game Show press conference, Capcom‘s Keiji Inafune stepped up on stage to announce Steel Battalion: Heavy Armor for Xbox 360 with Kinect. The game is in development at Armored Core developer FromSoftware.

According to Inafune, Steel Battalion is a Kinect game for “core gamers”, which he assures that both Capcom and FromSoftware are good at catering to. He does note that it’s a “very big challenge”, though.

Release date? No word yet. It’s exclusively for Kinect, though.
