A team of RPG developers including Atlus, Red Entertainment, Idea Factory, and Aruze have joined forces to bring gamers a new tactical RPG featuring characters taken from their respective games.

Chaos Wars, set for Japanese release in September 2006, will feature characters from four series: Shadow Hearts, Growlanser, Gungrave, and Shinsen Gumi Gunrouden.

The game's artistic style appears to be cel-shaded, and is reminiscent of recent NIS offerings. No indication has been made as to whether the title will see a release in North America; for now, Idea Factory will be handling the publishing duties in Japan. For those who can read Japanese, the game's official site can be found here.
