Atlus have announced another DS game - a rhythm/fighting hybrid called Draglade...

This is Atlus' third new game today. This one is a hybrid of a rhythm game and a fighting game.

Set in the world of Draglade, Grapping has becom the world's main spectating sport. Scientists will discover how to turn atmospheric Matter into energy and soon after this energy, G-Cons, will allow onversion of this power into a weapon called a "Glade". When a Glade hits it's target, it emits a sound. The sport of Grapping became a hit because the sounds made by clashing Glades in combat provided an experience that couldn't be matched in any other sport.

Draglade follows the footsteps of four young Grappers - Hibito, Guy, Kyle, and Daichi - and their quest to reach the ranks of the Major Grappers. The game offers intuitive controls and a vast amount of customizable fighting techniques and devastating combinations that allow for advanced fighting tactics. You can use Beat Combos to create a powerful melody. The characters in the game are also customisable and allows for trading of skills with friends. Draglade also offers both local and online multiplayer.
