Namco has opened the official website for its Nintendo DS title Xenosaga Episode I-II. As previously revealed, this new title will not only be a compilation of the series' first two installments, but also introduce new storylines and characters. With Yuuichirou Takeda (script), Hiroyuki Taiga (scene direction) and Kousuke Yamashita (music), three key members of Xenosaga The Animation team will be responsible for bringing the Xenosaga experience to Nintendo's handheld. The character designs are the work of Cowboy Bebop visual director Hiroshi Takeuchi and the team at Studio Live.

Based on the battle system of Episode I, the new game will feature character and mech battles, but also a new system only known as P-F.

Xenosaga Episode I-II has yet to receive an official release date.
