In this week’s issue of Famitsu magazine, Yoshiki Okamoto — veteran Japanese game designer and head of independent developer Game Republic — talked a little bit about what his company’s up to this year.
The first thing you can expect from GR is Clash of the Titans: The Videogame, a PS3/360 action title based off the movie hitting theaters next month. Playing as Zeus’ son Perseus, you’ll hack and slash your way through a litany of mythological enemies, using assorted “seize” skills to steal weapons from bad guys and absorb their spiritual energy.
“I’ve been involved with the Clash of the Titans project since the movie itself was in talks,” Okamoto said, “so it’s been under development for a pretty long time. Lehman Brothers was the primary investor on it, though, so their bankruptcy definitely freaked me out! I never even imagined I’d get to see the game through to where it is today.”
