Tsuji Bonbon (Capcom) – The 11th year of the Monster Hunter series will be a new start.
Ichiro Hazama (Square Enix) – Working really hard on another game that’s proving arduous to make.
Kotaro Uchikoshi (Spike Chunsoft) – Has lots of things brewing that will be exploding onto the scene. Will be continuing along on some things and will have stuff to announce down the line.

Masaaki Hoshino (Bandai Namco) – More information on Pokken is coming soon.
