The latest on Garters and Ghouls from Namco reads as follows:
Unearth the strange and undying world of Garters & Ghouls! Control and command the newly-dead Marie Dupois as she battles the minions of The Thrum and horrors beyond description! With over 25 levels, randomized level generation and downloadable content, the action never dies!
The screenshots provided remind me of Dark Raider in terms of game play and player controls (two sticks).

Namco has also published a teaser trailer that features concept art, but no actual game play. Something is better than nothing, right?
