Imagine 2D graphics in a 3D game. Japanese developer Silicon Studio has done that with upcoming PS3 action role-playing-game exclusive 3D Dot Games Heroes.

The game uses voxel volume element to depict the game world in three dimensions. As game site Insert Credit points out, this isn't a console first: SEGA Saturn shooter Amok did this way back in 1996.

3D Dot Games Heroes is being published by From Software, best known for the Armored Core series. No word of a Western release.
