Classic STG developer 8ing is back doing fighting games, and this time it's Fate Unlimited Codes for Capcom. Interestingly they also did the PSP version of Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection. Anyway, the official site just opened yesterday, and apparently Cavia is involved as well, though perhaps just for licensing reasons. There are lots of movies on the site, and unfortunately it looks extremely standard, and all the sound effects are the same or similar. It's an arcade game, and will be out on the rather old system 246 board - 2D gameplay, 4 buttons. If this got a port to any hardware, PS2 or Wii would be the closest, but not as close as if it'd been the System 256, which is based on PS2 hardware. Odd.
