Sega made the first gameplay showing of tri-Ace’s End of Eternity in Tokyo this morning as part of Microsoft Japan’s spring showcase.

The footage included a section of in-game combat, as well as some CG of two men fighting.

The glimpse, while brief, lends credence to a release date this year in Japan.

The game is tri-Ace’s first for PS3, and will release on both 360 and the Sony machine.

There’s no confirmation of a western release as yet.
