Square Enix has added two new titles to its Tokyo Game Show 2004 line-up. The first one is a sequel to Hanjuku Eiyuu Tai 3D (Half-boiled Hero VS 3D) named Hanjuku Eiyuu: 4-7 Hito no Hanjuku Eiyuu for the PlayStation2. The game is the second instalment of Takechi Tokita's comic RPG series and the story will take place on a total of seven planets and feature 100 vs 100 character battles, though party battles will be limited to three vs. three characters. 2D and 3D will be mixed to result in a "senseless" development. The developers also decided to bring back eggmonster vs eggmonster battles. Egg monster designs, which were submitted by fans as part of last month's campaign, will be used in the game.

The second title to be added to the Square Enix TGS04 line-up is Egg Monster Heroes for Nintendo's new handheld DS. Egg Monster Heroes will be the first RPG in the series allowing for the genre-typical village exploration. The real time battles will be called scratch battles and make use of the DS' touch pad. Your party's units, as shown on the touch pad, can be moved toward an enemy by rubbing the screen, resulting in the respective unit attacking the opponent in whose direction they have been moved. Upon summoning an egg monster, the screen will split into nine different parts. Attacks can be executed by pressing the various fields on the screen.

Both games will be presented in video format at Square Enix's booth. No release dates were released with this announcement.
