Suda51 said, “We are excited to finally take the cover off our latest project and invite gamers from around the globe to experience this new, warped world we have created. By partnering with EA, a publisher that truly shares our commitment to quality and innovation, we have been able to develop Shadows of the Damned according to our ambitious vision while creating an entertainment property we believe will appeal to a global audience.”
Mikami, who is serving as creative producer, said,”With Shadows of the Damned, gamers will fight for love in the most difficult arena imaginable … hell. Players will find themselves surrounded by demons set on destroying their heart and soul. Only the strong will survive.”
The game is set for a Summer 2011 release on Xbox 360 and PS3.
