Mark your calendars for Wednesday. That's when all the Famitsu info usually leaks out, and that's when we'll probably be hearing about a new Level-5 game.
Level-5 CEO Akihiro Hino posted a Tweet earlier today saying that his company's "new project" will be announced in the upcoming issue of Famitsu.
Wrote Hino: "Next week, Level-5's new project will at long last be announced in Famitsu. I wonder if everyone will look forward to this title. But, for the title this time, perhaps it will be first anticipated by game fans."
Back in March, Hino Tweeted about an impending announcement of a game that he said would become highly anticipated following its announcement. Trademark watchers later discovered a Level-5 trademark for a product whose name translates to "Sengoku Baseball Team."
The new announcement won't just be the re-announcement of Danbol Senki. Akihiro Hino actually commented on this long awaited PSP title in a later post: "We plan on releasing a lot of information on Danbol Senki before the summer. It's quite a major game, so please wait just a bit more. Starting this year, just like with Inazuma Eleven, it will start with an anime, so please look forward to it."
Hino has also, in past Tweets, mentioned the console version of Inazuma Eleven and a press conference for Ni no Kuni.

Ok, so few days from now on, we'll see a game where Yukimura as batter and Masamune as pitcher to settle their fight from Sengoku Basara?
He still mentions Danball Senki... But, where's Ushiro...?

I bet if someone asks about Ushiro, Hino will respond.

The whole "anticipated by game fans" part makes me hope it's going to be a new Dark Cloud game, but I don't want to get my hopes up.

@Rockgamer: He said he believed it would become anticipated by fans once it was announced -- not that it's being anticipated now. This makes me think it's an original title of some form.
