Finally, someone's "me too"ing ICO. 
Its called Majin:The Fallen Realm.   
  

  
EDIT 
Apparently the internet's full of dense fools. Here's the connective tissue, internet geniuses. Both this and Last Guardian have you playing a child in a fantasy world with a large companion that you indirectly control to solve adventure puzzles. See, that's what's happening here. You couldn't put two and two together, egg on your face. Don't try and defend it, kay just move on.

By seeing those screen shots I can predict that this game will have fairly stiff animations and will be smack dab in the middle of an uncanny valley. 
In other words: it doesn't look that good graphically, and that main dude looks like a freaking punk.

Their upcoming game is conceptually identical. This is an adventure game where you indirectly control your large pet thing to complete puzzles.

hmm well by someone posting a thread saying Team ICO has some competition by posting a few screens? have you played either game? just because it has a creature next to it makes it nothing like any ICO game I have played

I don't get it?.....because it's colourful and features a somewhat young-looking protagonist?

Right, because you haven't play their upcoming game that has you doing the same thing. Just get out of my thread, Jesus.

I like the first shot (concept art) more than the screenshots.  Give me more of that in the game and I can dig it.

I kinda like the big monster..he looks kinda silly but in a good way. 
 
I'll wait till I see a video of it  or something.... It may end up like Darksiders..a game that looks incredibly shit at first glance but is actually rather  great.

I like what they're going for, I guess. Maybe Im drinking the koolaid, as soon as I saw that concept art I made the thread. Then I remembered where I was. Im going back to 1up, you and me let's talk there. Fuck this thread.

Where has this anything to the consistent and melancholic atmosphere and artwork of the Team Ico games? 
 
There are creatures that don't look immediatly kill-worthy, and the landscape is dominated by grass and earth. That's where the similarities end.

The presser just said its an adventure game with a large companion. I think these were released like 20 minutes ago so. Idunno, refresh Kotaku over and over and maybe something will pop up.

  I think the trailer does a better job at highlighting its similarities with The Last Guardian. Just realized it's being made by the company behind Folklore, that would explain the look of the companion.

TC I get it.
 
But where The Last Guardian already had me hooked with cat eagle baby thing from the first screenshots...that Majin looks....ahhh...mediocre... 
 
You can have your "good whimsy" I'll take my good game.
 
Saying Team ICO has competition is foolish...The Last Guardian is going to destroy that game.
 
EDIT: Wow, I posted that and I looked it over and it actually reads like I was serious, I'm being sarcastic on the last two lines.
 
BTW people were bringing up ICO because you posted "someone was me"too"ing ICO" which was the first game, and you do guide a chick through the game.

@Bear: You had me hooked at "The company behind Folklore". God I love that game. Seeing as Game Republic is doing this, I think it's safe to say that Team Ico DOES have competition. 
 
Also, this game was only revealed a few months after The Last Guardian. They had to have been working on this thing months before anyone knew anything about the premise of TLG.

 @Doctorchimp:
I didn't say it was going to surpass or even equal Last Guardian. Its a Namco game, so it certainly won't. But I'd rather they make a poor man's Last Guardian than what they normally make. I never said it'd be stiff competition. I just like the idea of more people doing shit like this. Jimminy jilakers, internet.
