Mega Man and Dead Rising Creator announces Yaiba

Keiji Inafune, the brilliant mind behind Mega Man, Dead Rising and Onimusha, announced his new game in a press release today - bringing zombies, ninja and mechs together in Yaiba. Not much else is known about the game, but what else do you need to know? It's Keiji Inafune, it's got zombies, ninja and mechs in it and it's going to be kick ass. Inafune explained the thought process behind Yaiba:

"Everywhere I go, people ask me, 'When is it coming?' There are so many zombie games out there, yet people ask me for a new Inafune zombie game. I am grateful for people's respect for me as the 'zombie game creator' and to fulfill that I must answer their expectations with YAIBA."

Which I'm sure answers all of your questions. A teaser trailer was also released for Yaiba today - and while it's a little light on information, it still looks outstanding. You can watch it embedded below or in our videos library - going full screen for HD of course. Are you excited for Yaiba, or will you want to learn more before getting drawn in?
