Atari Europe has announced the October release of Krome Studios’ Blade Kitten for Xbox LIVE Arcade, PSN and PC.

Blade Kitten, based on the comic book series by creator Steve Stamatiadis, brings the world of bounty hunter Kit Ballard to life. Set three years prior to the comics, players are invited into the world of Hollow Wish where they take on the role of Kit Ballard, one of the best bounty hunters in the business. Kit, part cat, part girl, is one of the last of her species, and commands her unique “Darque Blade” hovering sword to defeat enemies.

Joining Kit is Skiffy, a laid-back sidekick who lends a hand in collecting items, solving puzzles and protecting Kit when needed.

Blade Kitten will feature 19 narrative-driven levels, including a change of pace in three exploration levels with Noot, a rideable alien mount.
