Square-Enix today announced that the upcoming action/RPG Lord of Arcana is heading to PSPs in North America.The game puts an emphasis on cooperative play, with up to four players teaming up to battle monsters, fight evil, and complete quests. Yes, this is a complete departure from Square's usual lineup. Square says the controls are designed with novice players in mind.

Want to know what it's about? Here's the story, according to the game's official site:

This world is called Horodyn, so named for its first king.
At the edge of a village surrounded by a huge forest lies the powerful stone Arcana, the source of all order in the world.
It is said that only one with power can acquire Arcana.
Slayers annihilate hordes of monsters so that they could lay their hands on Arcana.
What power does it hold? And to what destiny is one with Arcana bound?

That certainly clears up any lingering questions we might have.
