A few months ago we told you about this exciting RPG that is coming to Japan, well, it just happens that Gamespot has a hands-on preview of it.

Namco x Capcom plays like a standard strategy RPG, though it features a touch of action game elements, like when you’re fighting against enemies on the battle screen. You move your character units around a field map that consists of square cells, and when you’re in range for combat, you can select to attack an enemy unit. The game is stage-based, and you need to fulfill mission objectives–which is usually to beat all the enemies in the map–in order to advance.

Another thing that is worth mentioning is that it is, at this moment, unlikely that it will reach American shores so you better start sprucing up your Japanese.
