A new countdown website has been uncovered (originally by Gematsu) for an upcoming Action RPG called “PROJECT-TRITRI.” This game is inspired by the classic RPGs in the 90’s and has a stellar group of RPG professionals developing for it as well.
The development team includes:

Atsuko Nishida, Tomohiro Kitakaze, Megumi Mizutani (Pokemon series) all designing on the game
Additionally, domerica will be handing the animation and Three Rings is labeled as the development studio.
This is an impressive lineup, and that is not all this website has revealed. The full reveal of the game will be announced on May 26, 2022 but in the meantime, there is a game design document that has been released on the teaser website that includes details such as the genre, story, concept, and character designs.
