Zero no Kiseki won't hit PSP until later this year. But Falcom will be giving the game's hero and heroine an early debut through an appearance in Ys VS Sora no Kiseki.

Lloyd Bannings will feature as a key character in the crossover action combat game. Heroine Elie MacDowell will appear as a support character.

Support characters are characters you set in advance of the fight and call out for support. The screen fills up with effects, and the support character performs their designated support action -- in Elie's case a healing skill known as Aura Rain.

Both characters are original creations for Zero no Kiseki, a sequel to the Sora no Kiseki line of action RPGs. As Ys VS Sora no Kiseki is set for July 29, presumably before Zero no Kiseki, this will be your first exposure to the two.
