Sony Computer Entertainment has announced a new Ghost in the Shell game that will be as welcome as Santa to anime fans around the world.
In development as SCEJ’s Kyoto studio, the PlayStation 2 exclusive is titled Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex, a name likely to change for western release.
According to the press release, the game will be a break from the exploration-driven PSone original, with a new focus on shooting and action.
And that’s about all we know at this point. Due out in Japan in March of 2004, expect to see Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex on stores in the US and Europe in time for Christmas 2004.
