X-Blades Announced

Creating a little buzz this afternoon, SouthPeak Games and TopWare Interactive have officially announced the development of a new 3rd person hack-and-slash action title called X-Blades. The game features anime-inspired visuals with over-the-top cinematic flair and a combat system blending guns, blades and magic. Here's a little snippet from the press release:

“The unique anime-style backdrop combined with high-octane, multi-discipline combat gameplay really pushes X-Blades into brand new territory,” said Melanie Mroz, CEO of SouthPeak Games. “The 3rd-person ‘hack-em-up’ genre needs a fresh perspective and X-Blades is poised to deliver it.”

X-Blades features a special combination of cinematic style, beautiful animation and relentless high-speed gameplay. Players assume the role of Ayumi, a stunningly seductive yet tenacious heroine who battles enemies with her pistol blades, acrobatic ability and magic spells. With full anime-style cut scenes, the story unfolds revealing demonic hordes and spectacular landscapes, all ripe for exploration and frenetic supernatural battling.

X-Blades is scheduled for release on the PC and Next-Gen consoles in late 2008.
