From Gamespot.
Dark Awake is a fantasy style 2D fighter game developed by a Korean company, Eolith, and published by Taito. The graphics are distinctly different from traditional fighters, as the characters seem to be somewhat influenced by The Lord of the Rings and the art style that complements it.
The selection of characters includes an archer, a warrior, and a mage. Races include elves, trolls, and orcs. The game system adopts the striker system from SNK's King of Fighters 2000 but with a bit of a new arrangement. At the beginning of each stage in Dark Awake, the player can select a character to be his playable character. The player can replace them with an item, such as a healing potion or an invisible cloak. Items have many uses and can be used multiple times in a round. If the characters are not replaced by items, they can be called out to assist the player.
Also unique to Dark Awake is that characters on both the winner and loser's side rotate to the next fighter when a round ends.
No mention on what hardware it'll be on.
Also guess Rugal was 100% right that they would take the experience from KOF '01/'02 and release their own fighting game. ;)

The concept looks good enough. Let's hope the execution is good too.
