Thanks to Next Generation (http://www.next-gen.biz) for the news (http://www.next-gen.biz/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=2174&Itemid=2).

Microsoft Japan is expected to launch the action title Ninety-Nine Nights on April 20 in Japan.

The game, which is being developed by Tetsuya Mizuguchi-founded Q Entertainment and Korea-based Phantagram, is expected to launch on April 20. Initially scheduled as a launch title, the Dynasty Warriors-style hack-'n'-slasher is partly intended to cater to a Japanese audience.

Mizuguchi is the acclaimed developer behind the PSP puzzle game Lumines, and Phantagram is responsible for the Kingdom Under Fire action-strategy series.
No news on a US or European release, but I'm guessing June/July in the US and August/September in Europe.

Wahoo. Hopefully this turns out as awesome as I hope it'll be. I'd love to see a Dynasty Warriors type game done in an awesome, non-repetitive way, but the last thing the world needs is another rehash of DW.

Cool. The next few months are looking to be pretty good now. Fight Night and Battlefeild are out next month, Frame City this month (jury's still out, but I hold hope) and 99Nights in April.

Frame City is screwed. A pretty much total revamp was asked for, and is being delivered. You totally forgot blazing angels in March!
