Keiji Inafune’s announced this morning the first full project he’s developing since leaving Capcom a year ago: a 3DS title known as Kai-oh. The game, to be published by Marvelous AQL and developed by Inafune’s Intercept studio, is an action RPG with a pirate theme, but with you playing as a penguin. No, we don’t get it neither. It’ll be out next year.

Inafune’s done some social titles for Japan, but this is the first big game he’s done since leaving Capcom last October. Thanks, Andriasang.

Thanks, Andriasang.
