Class of Heroes 2 is a fairly typical Japanese dungeon crawler set around Crostini Academy, a boarding school for would-be swordsmen, sorcerers, monks, ninjas and other adventuring classes. Forming a party of students, you set out to, you know, kill monsters and collect treasure.

It reviewed reasonably well on PSP. The PS3 version was updated with more dungeons, skills, pupils, and, in Japan at least, voice acting.

MonkeyPaw's announcement was light on details, though Gaijinworks president Vic Ireland revealed on the GameFAQs boards (via Joystiq) that 2G will be able to use a PSP or Vita for dual-screen play, functioning as a controller and showing extra information.

Look, here's a trailer showing one full quest from the PSP original:
