| Square Enix released new info on its PSP 3rd person shooter RPG The 3rd Birthday, a spin-off of the Parasite Eve series. The protagonist Aya Brea is a New York government agent who was formerly employed at the FBI, now she works for CTI (Counter Twisted Investigation), the enemies are called Twisted, which the CTI believes they came from the future. Aya has the ability to mind control other characters to perform certain action and battles. The Overdrive power allows her to slow down the time for limited time, which will have an important role in the game.
The game will have automatic target recognition system, you can also switch between different weapon quickly. There are two more systems: Radio and Liberation, which will be announced in future.
Aya will have different defense power depending on the clothing she wears.
Producer Kitase and Tetsuya Nomura said that the platform has changed from cellphone to PSP was because the quality of the game is too high for cellphones. The game will not have multiplayer mode. Aya's new power is unrelated to the first Parasite Eve game, it was obtained from another source. Kitase also mentioned that if the game gains support from fans, this may become the start of a series and potentially move to the console.
