Capcom announced last week that the company is making a game that uses Japanese IC Cards. Thanks to Famitsu, we now know that the project is called “Megami Meguri”.

Here’s what’s leaked from the magazine thus far:

– Talking communication game

– Teach words to the apprentice goddess Tsukumo

– Communicate with her as she grows into a full-fledged goddess

– Full voice-overs through voice synthesis

– Compatible with your IC Card

– Tsukumo (voiced by Ayasa Ito): the small artifact spirit of an IC Card. She’s friendly, does things at her own pace, and can sometimes push her luck

– Amaterasu (voiced by Yuka Ozaki): A goddess who trains goddesses, and will accompany players on their journey as Tsukumo’s guide to becoming a full-fledged goddess

– Tsukumo will raise various questions to the player

– When this happens, you can teach her words that she might not know, which she’ll and use in the following conversation

– The variations in your conversations with Tsukumo will increase when new words are learned

– Uses “Megami Speak Engine”

– This was made as a collaboration between Toshiba and Capcom

– The engine uses a synthetic voice that sounds close to a natural voice

– Tsukumo is fully voiced to say any word that the player inputs

– Read a player’s IC card and new conversations can be triggered

– Items can be obtained based on your riding history or shopping information

– Supports ten types of IC Cards: Kitaca, Suica, Pasmo, Toica, Manaca, Icoca, PiTaPa, Sugoca, Nimoca, and Hayakaken

– Over 9,000 real train stations will appear in the game from across Japan

– You’ll be able to fully enjoy their contents even without an IC Card

– Will be at TGS with a demo

– Tarou Minoboshi working on character designs
