Rumor: Upcoming Level 5 title to establish "new genre"

Level 5 has been busy working on White Knight story for the PS3. But a list that was compiled shows they are working on a new game. The interesting thing is that under genre it says "set to create a new genre" Lets hope we see something at TGS.
If you've been wondering if Level 5 is up to anything other than getting themselves knee-deep in White Knight Story programming code, we've got some good news for you today. Seems a preliminary list of RPG's to show at the Tokyo Game Show compiled by RPGFan denotes a few Level 5 titles, one of which has yet to claim a title of its own. The interesting thing is the description released in the game listing: "set to create a new genre". That's pretty ambitious.

What could this game be? What platform will it land on? We don't have any answers yet, but since Level 5 has a strong connection with Sony and a lot of their time is going into White Knight Story, we don't think it'll be another PS3 title, rather, a PSP title. Yeah, it's not as exciting that way, but do you really think a company would really want to work on two PS3 titles at once? Leave us your thoughts, hypotheses, or guesses!

    Eh? A new genre? If they are successful, I hope it is a fun thing...Not creating a whole new genre for the sake of creating a new genre...

    I wonder how good that White Knight Story thing is?

    I trust Level 5...especially because of Rogue Galaxy, they sure as hell know how to captivate a non-RPG audience TO an RPG.

    PS3/PSP, whatever their product is, I'll probably be buying.

    PSP needs something to save it. PS3 needs something to save it. New genre? Highly unlikely...

    Dark Cloud, Dark Cloud 2, Dragon Quest VIII and Rouge Galaxy are all great RPGs. I got Rouge Galazy JUST because it was Level 5 and I loved it. I trust the company and I know these two new games are gonna be awesome.
