Irem’s Bumpy Trot, an action game about steam-powered walking mechs, was released here on PS2 as Steambot Chronicles. A PS3 sequel was announced at TGS 2006, with few announcements since then, until today’s really unfortunate one: It’s been canceled.

In a brief letter on the Bumpy Trot site, Irem apologized to fans and plead with them to support Irem’s future titles. That lineup, after the cancellation of Disaster Report 4, currently includes Doki Doki Suikoden and Pachipara Slot, both for PSP and neither likely to leave Japan.
