Namco Bandai's New RPG is a Sequel
Company promises a return for "that RPG."

We're still five days away from Namco Bandai's second big RPG unveil in as many weeks. But the company's "RPG_LOST" countdown site was updated today with somewhat of a hint to what we can expect:
When you visit the site now, you're first greeted with a message that says "That RPG Returns." This is followed by the same countdown and honeycomb background as before. The text at the main part of the site still says "New RPG, 5 Days Until Announcement."
Last week's countdown lead to Keroro RPG, a Tales-like RPG featuring characters from the Keroro universe. This week's countdown appears to be for a sequel.
But a sequel to what? We'll find out on the 21st!

Hmm... According to some 2channeler, the RPG seems to come from Bandai side (as the URL have bandaichannel on it)... And as you've mentioned, the possibilities of announcing it on V Jump... The sequel of the Bandai RPG... someone deduced it... Digimon (and there's tentative title for Digimon for Wii)...

It could not be a sequel to the Keroro RPG as it has yet to be released, but could it be one of the Tales of games such as Tales of Vesperia?

Digimon World on the original Playstation was a classic for all - time. A new Digimon World RPG would be the greatest thing ever!!!

Digimon World 3 on PlayStation was actually very good, I'd love to see another if it were in the same style.
In reality though, give me .hack// or Xenosaga. Please and thank you. =]

While Digimon would be somewhat awesome, I don't think it was legendary enough to be referred to as "that RPG". And I doubt Tales would be referred to as JUST "RPG".. Then again, it could simply mean "That RPG that'll be revealed in 5 days", haha.
..I dunno, that honeycomb background does remind me of .hack// somehow. Fingers crossed it's the start of a new saga!

Why would they startannouncing a new saga for .hack while their supposed-to-be-the-last-game hasn't been released yet?
