Project X Zone trailer shows Namco/Sega/Capcom crossover in action

Earlier this month we saw Project X Zone revealed as Capcom, Sega, and Namco Bandai's joint foray into strategic roleplaying for the 3DS. Now the first trailer for the game's been revealed, giving potential players a better look at the star-studded title. For a title billed as a thinking player's strategize-'em-up, the game sure looks to contain a wealth of one-on-one brawling. That's okay: thinking and face-punching are a time-honored pairing.

There's no word on Project X Zone's European or American release, though enough of the game's characters are beloved in the West that we imagine its awkward three-parent upbringing will include English lessons at some point. In the meantime, surely this footage is fairly unambiguous in what it reveals of the game's content. Hitting people really hard in the head is something of a universal language, after all.
