Capcom and developer CyberConnect2 (Naruto) have announced the development of Asura’s Wrath, an all-new Unreal Engine 3-powered action game featuring a lead character who can summon a huge being to crush enemies.

Although described as an action game, CyberConnect2 game director Seiji Shimoda believes people will question if they are really playing a game or experiencing a serial drama – he isn’t even sure himself if they are making a game.

Inspired by Asian mythology and fused with science fiction, according to Capcom Asura’s Wrath will redefine the action genre by delivering unprecedented levels of dynamism, drama and interaction.

Once a revered deity, Asura was betrayed by his fellow gods and stripped of all his powers. Consumed by anger at the injustice he has suffered and swearing vengeance, Asura discovers he can use this fury to his advantage and turn it against his enemies. By channelling his inner rage, Asura is now able to unleash devastating attacks and wreak havoc as he battles against the deities who have wronged him and their earthly forces.

The game’s coming to Xbox 360 and PS3.
