Armored Core 4: March 22nd & More!

Via Joystiq -

Xbox 360 will receive some love from an important Japanese franchise in early 2007. From Software’s Armored Core 4 is scheduled to arrive on Microsoft’s console on March 22 — it’s already available on PlayStation 3. The deal will be sweetened by a “special movies” DVD and art booklet, available to reservation makers.

Sega, which has signed on as publisher, plans to bring both versions of Armored Core 4 to North America. The Xbox 360 release marks the first time the Armored Core series will be available on a non-Sony platform (with the exception of mobile phone spin-offs).

Don’t forget that a recent document on Capcom Japan’s website also confirms that Okami and Godhand will be coming to the Xbox 360 as well, which were also Sony-exclusive titles.
