Daily Video: Haruhi Suzumiya PS3/PSP Game Teaser

On Thursday, Bandai Namco Games began streaming the above teaser promotional video (PV) for the limited editions of Suzumiya Haruhi no Tsuisō (The Reminiscences of Haruhi Suzumiya), a "wandering adventure" game for the PlayStation 3 and PSP gaming consoles. The game, due out March 24, 2011, ties in with the 2010 anime film The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya.

There will be two limited-edition Nagato Yuki no Otoshimono Boxes — one for the PlayStation 3 version and another for the PSP version. Each will include an exclusive box illustrated by the original artist Noizi Ito, a special video collection with the new computer-animated footage made for the boxes, a special-edition booklet, three exclusive clear posters, a exclusive binder, three "near-life-size" reversible posters with 3D images on the back and 3D glasses, and the game itself.

The game's story, whose creation was supervised by the Disappearance film's animation production committee, begins immediately after the ending of the film. The player assumes the role of the original light novels' Kyon as he finds himself at the Kita High School Festival again in a world where the SOS Brigade does not exist.

A limited-edition Blu-ray Disc version of The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya will also ship in Japan on December 18.
