In an e-mail sent out today, Atlus USA has announced that they will be localizing Hospital, the Wii title from the Trauma Center team that was recently unveiled in this week's Weekly Famitsu magazine. The game will go by the moniker Trauma Team in North America, and is currently given as a Spring 2010 release.

Trauma Team takes you out of emergency room and into the control of the whole hospital, as the game has six playable characters, each with a different profession and gameplay type. Aside from the standard surgeon, you can also play as a paramedic, diagnostician, cosmetic surgeon, and endoscopic surgeon. Additionally, Naomi Kimishima, first introduced in Trauma Center: Second Opinion will also be playable as a forensic specialist.
