Parasite Eve Third Birthday is a Third-Person Shooter

Yesterday, we reported on news that Koei, the Japanese developer of the Dynasty Warriors series, has plans to release a cooperative multiplayer title on the PSP. There was some brief speculation about what such a game might look like: would it be an all new IP or a port of an existing franchise? Well, today we already have the answer, thanks to Japanese gaming magazine Shonen Jump. The multiplayer cooperative title in the works at Koei is called Dynasty Warriors: Multi Raid. It is going to be a spinoff of the upcoming Dynasty Warriors 6, but one which allows PSP gamers to join on (we assume multiple) raids with friends over wifi. The game is currently scheduled for release in Japan this winter, however Koei boss Kenji Matsubara has all but promised a Western release.
