Square-Enix is developing a new RPG based on the manga comic and recent anime series Soul Eater, it's emerged.

According to Japanese website Game Watch, the game is being developed alongside the anime series, which premiered in Japan just last week on April 7.

Soul Eater is set in the Shinigami technical school for weapon meisters. The story revolves around three groups trying to turn a "human weapon" into a "Death Scythe" by collecting souls of ninety-nine evil humans and one witch, which sounds perfect for a RPG full of grinding. The game is being developed in conjunction with the series.

Unfortunately, Square-Enix Europe had no information on whether Soul Eater was on its way to Europe at the moment, so we wouldn't hold our breath for a release over here.
