EA and independent developer Hothead Games have announced downloadable action-RPG, DeathSpank, will be released on July 13 for PSN and July 14 for Xbox LIVE Arcade.
Developed under the direction of The Secret of Monkey Island creator and industry icon Ron Gilbert, DeathSpank promises to combine Gilbert’s unique humour and wit with fast, addictive action-RPG gameplay.
The game puts players in the mighty boots of DeathSpank, the “Dispenser of Justice”, “Vanquisher of Evil” and “Hero to the Downtrodden”. His life-long destiny is to embark on an epic journey in search of a mysterious and magical artefact known only as, “The Artifact”.
DeathSpank will feature local co-op gameplay, allowing friends to team up on the same console as both DeathSpank and his trusty, magical sidekick, Sparkles the Wizard. Sparkles’ abilities are magical, serving to complement DeathSpank’s weapons-based attacks.
DeathSpank will be priced $14.99 on PSN and 1200 MS Points on XBLA.
