[Jonnyboy117]

BREAKING NEWS: A new production studio devoted to GameCube announces Biohazard 4, Mikami's newest project, and three more.

Capcom's Japanese website has updated with a huge new section for Production Studio 4, the company's new developer suite devoted entirely, it seems, to the GameCube platform.  The new website is available in English at the link above.

The newly unveiled games include Biohazard 4, the next game in the series known as Resident Evil outside Japan, plus four more games that have never before been announced at all.

Shinji Mikami's long-awaited GameCube title is Product Number 03, or P.N.03 for short.  The game follows the exploits of a robot hunter and will feature lots of explosions and ballistic chaos.

Viewtiful Joe (yes, that's the correct spelling) is a superhero game from director Hideki Kamiya.  The director's comments describe the game as being all about action and the fluidity of movement; the goal is to make it feel like you're really controlling a superhero.

Dead Phoenix is a fantasy-themed game set in a city high floating in the clouds.  The main character is a winged warrior named Phoenix.  Director Hiroki Kato says he wants to create that "flying like a bird" feeling in this game.

Finally, Killer 7 is a hitman epic from director Gouichi Suda, produced by Shinji Mikami.  The main character is, according to the site, a wheelchair-bound old man who happens to be an assassin with seven different personalities.  Each one gives him different abilities in his quest to hunt down his evil adversary, Kun Lan.

We'll have more on all of these games very soon.  Until then, we suggest you check out Capcom's new GameCube site in English via the above link and read up on these games yourself.
