Konami announced its Tokyo Game Show line-up earlier today. The annual convention, which starts on 15th September, will play host to several developers and publishers. We’ve already talked about one title that snuck into the company’s line-up \u2014 the 1996 arcade game Cannon Dancer<\/a> \u2014 but it’s also been teasing another announcement in a series that’s ” loved all over the world”, but not from one of its biggest series, reports VGC<\/a>.<\/p>\n

On 16th September at 3:30pm JST<\/strong> (that’s 11:30pm PST on 15th<\/strong>, or 2:30am EST \/ 7:30am BST on 16th<\/strong>), Konami will be announcing a new title related to a beloved series from the company. This is enough to get anyone<\/em> excited, of course. However, VGC’s source has reported that this new title will likely be related to a smaller project, and not those rumours of a Castlevania, Silent Hill, and Metal Gear Solid revival.<\/p>\n

So, what does that leave us with? Konami is already showcasing Bomberman R 2<\/a> during the event. There’s always the Suikoden<\/strong> series \u2014 though franchise creator Yoshitaka Murayama is off creating his own Kickstarter spiritual successor in Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes<\/a>. Or, how about a new Lost in Blue<\/a> game?<\/p>\n

During this unknown announcement, voice actor Yuji Kaji \u2014 who’s famous for voicing Adol in Ys VIII<\/a> and Ys IX<\/a>, Takumi in Fire Emblem Fates<\/a>, and Hope Estheim in Final Fantasy XIII<\/strong> \u2014 will be making a guest appearance, as someone who is apparently representing the fans.<\/p>\n

We’ll try not to get our hopes up too much, but we’re at least curious. Konami has been doing a great job with its compilations as of recent \u2014 the Contra Anniversary Collection<\/a>, Castlevania Anniversary Collection<\/a>, and the Castlevania Advance Collection<\/a> are all fantastic, and the just-released Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Cowabunga Collection<\/a> is also kicking shell.<\/p>\n
