On Sunday a Sakura Taisen-themed stage event took place in Tokyo's Nippon Budoukan. Series mastermind Ouji Hiroi was in attendance and had a big announcement to make. He revealed an entirely new Sakura Taisen installment was currently in the works. The game is set to feature appearances of the Teito and Paris Hanagumi as well as New York's Hoshigumi. While Hiroi would not mention the target platform, he was wielding a Nintendo DS.

RPGFan will bring you more details on the new Sakura Taisen game as soon as they become available.
