From the looks of the setting and art, and the staff listed, this might well be the big 2011 original title from BONES' B Studio. At least now we know why Nakamura stopped animating Star Driver after ep1.

Quote:
The February issue of Kadokawa Shoten's Gundam Ace magazine reports that the anime studio BONES is producing an anime called Towa no Kuon. The director was Umanosuke Iida (Mobile Suit Gundam: The 08th MS Team, Hellsing), who passed away in November. Takeshi Mori is serving as the "collaborative director" in Iida's place, and Saizo Nemoto (Tokyo Majin Gakuen Kenpucho: Tou 2nd Act, Shangri-La script writer) is supervising the scripts.
Gundam 0083 and Cowboy Bebop's Toshihiro Kawamoto is designing the characters and overseeing the animation process. Yutaka Izubuchi (Gundam: Char's Counterattack, Gundam 0080, Patlabor) is credited for the concept designs, while his frequent collaborator Shingo Takeba (Gasaraki, RahXephon, Patlabor WXIII) is also credited for "design works."
BONES aims to finish the first episode by next summer. While Gundam Ace has not provided specifics on the anime's story, it does present several sketches that Iida drew himself drew of an alternate-dimension gate and other elements.
