The game was originally announced as a mobile phone title. However, at the private fan event DKΣ3713 in August 2008, it was announced that The 3rd Birthday was also being developed for the PSP with no mention of the previously-announced mobile phone version. In the Tokyo Game Show presskits, it was confirmed that the game would be exclusive to the PSP.

A teaser trailer was shown at the Tokyo Game Show. The trailer recaps the events of Parasite Eve and Parasite Eve 2 before switching to the events of The 3rd Birthday. Aya is in a street with snow falling. She looks up, concerned, as a vortex opens. The trailer continues with a man offering Aya his hand. She flings it away and the camera focuses on Aya as she shoots him. Whilst this is happening, a remix of the original theme can be heard. The trailer concludes with a creature emerging from the vortex into the street. Aya does battle with the creature and just as it attacks her, the camera pans into her eyes hinting at the possible return of parasite energy. The trailer ends with the logo of The 3rd Birthday and confirms that the game will be exclusive to the PS

Another trailer was released, this time the same trailer that was presented in the DKΣ3713 event. After also recapping the events of Parasite Eve and Parasite Eve II, Aya Brea is seen walking down the aisle in an empty church. As she reaches the altar a shadowy figure is seen in the doorway behind her. As she starts to turn, the mystery person opens fire with a rifle. Aya takes out her handgun, and just as she is about to shoot the figure turns and appears to be carrying someone. A wedding ring falls to the floor on the steps nearby. Blood on the floor begins to swallow the ring and once it has, the camera zooms into the ring with the same effect as zooming into Aya's eye in the previous trailer. The lights turn yellow and change into "The 3rd Birthday" logo, again confirming that the 3rd Birthday will be exclusive to the PSP.

Issue 6/5 of Famitsu has an interview of Tetsuya Nomura where he says that the first few stages of the game are already playable.
At June E3 2010, another trailer was released. This trailer starts off by showing Aya sitting down in a city catching her breath while looking noticeably injured and fatigued from battle while snow falls around her. It then shows what appears to be giant roots coming up from the ground, which cause widespread destruction and attacks civilians. After that, a close-up of a police offer in SWAT gear is shown and a few seconds later red data circles appear around the officer which reveal the officer to be Aya. Afterward it shows some gameplay with Aya using an assault rifle to fight creatures and using her Overdive ability to switch bodies with a team member on a nearby rooftop. Afterward it shows Aya severely bleeding, noticeably injured and struggling to stand and hold her weapon while it appears she's about to engage in a battle right before the trailer ends and the 3rd Birthday logo appears. Immediately after the logo appears it shows that the game is coming soon and once again it will be for PSP as well as it being a downloadable title from the PlayStation Store
