The official Twitter account for Sega’s Sakura Taisen (Sakura Wars in English) franchise revealed on Friday that Noizi Ito (The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya) is designing two characters for the Shin Sakura Taisen (Project Sakura Wars in English) game.
Bleach manga creator Tite Kubo is the main character designer for the new game, but the game has other character designers for other characters, including Yukiko Horiguchi (K-ON!, Tamako Market) for the Shanghai Assault Force characters, BUNBUN (Izetta: The Last Witch, Sakura Quest) for the London Assault Force characters, and Humikane Shimada (Girls und Panzer, Strike Witches) for the Berlin Assault Force characters.
The game will launch for the PlayStation 4 in Japan on December 19, and in the West in spring 2020.
