After leaving his executive position at Capcom and quietly working on his own games, Mega Man's creator has returned to the spotlight at this year's Tokyo Game Show. Not only did Keiji Inafune use TGS to debut the bloody action game he's making with Team Ninja, Yaiba Ninja Gaiden Z, but the event is also the first time his other new creation, Soul Sacrifice, has been playable to the public. The gameplay reminds us of the four player battles of Monster Hunter, only the enemies seem a bit creepier. Watch our first ever hands-on with the game planned for release early next year on the Vita in Japan, and out some point in 2013 for the rest of the world...

Bonus! The TGS 2012 trailer!
