Capcom's been hard at work lately. Along with Street Fighter IV hitting the arcades, Basara X getting a console release and Resident Evil 5 getting retooled for co-operative play, Famitsu reports that a new crossover fighting game is in the works.

In the tradition of Marvel vs Capcom, Capcom has picked a fight with another influential studio, this one is Tatsunoko. Tatsunoko is one of older anime studios in Japan spouting such titles as Super Dimensional Fortress Macross, Gatchaman, Casshern and co-producing Neon Genesis Evangelion.

So far, there's only been 4 confirmed characters, Ryu and Chun-Li representing Capcom and Ken Washio from Gatchaman and Casshern himself representing Tatsunoko. No release date or overseas plans have been announced.

Then again, a good number of people could probably get something similar from M.U.G.E.N. and not even have to wait. However, a good bet is, it will not be released here just based on what it has to work with.
