Brütal Legend Getting Ready to be Released
Electronic Arts (EA) and Double Fine Productions say Brütal Legend will
be available for the Xbox 360 and the PlayStation 3 on October 13th in
North America and on October 16th in Europe.
Brütal
Legend is a 3rd person action game rich in combat, imagery and
storytelling, delivering lighter-flicking fun, says EA.
The
company has re-launched Brütal Legend website (www.brutallegend.com), a
source for trailers to screenshots, concept art to exclusive blogs from
the Double Fine studio team, epic polls and more.
Brütal
Legend tells the tale of Eddie Riggs, played by Jack Black. The ultimate
roadie, Eddie is the first person anyone calls when they need guitars
tuned or stages rigged, and has a love for hot rods and a photographic
memory for every Heavy Metal album cover, and the lyrics those albums
contained.
One
night, a stage accident knocks Eddie unconscious, and he awakens in a
world that looks very strange yet oddly familiar, a world where every
Heavy Metal album cover and lyric Eddie knows has come to life, and
where the evil emperor Doviculus and his demon army, The Tainted Coil,
have enslaved the last remaining humans.
When an
oppressed people request Eddie’s knowledge of modern warfare, he pulls
from his own experience in the only occupation he’s ever had, a roadie
for a Heavy Metal band, and under his command, this barbaric force of
hot-rods, Marshall stacks, leather, and chrome will bring this ancient
world into the age of Metal.
