Asura's Wrath

Capcom and CyberConnect2 are currently working on a new action game called Asura's Wrath. You take control of Asura, a demigod, to seek vengeance against the Seven Deities who have betrayed you and has taken your daughter. Using your unworldly powers, you must face off against numerous enemies and giant bosses to achieve your goals.

Asura's Wrath was announced during last year's Tokyo Game Show (2010). The game looks great, CyberConnect2 has impressed me time and time again with their cinematic  approach to gameplay. I am also a fan of the art style.

According to the game's producer Kasuhiro Tsuyachiya,

"Asura's Wrath takes elements from Asian mythology and blends them with science fiction."

I guess my only nitpick from the videos of the game that are out so far is that the camera is a tad bit too low. I know this is for cinematic purposes but it might hinder your perspective of the battle scene and with the game looking like everything is jacked up on cocaine, that might be a problem.

The game is going to be released in Japan and North America on both the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. As of right now, there is no solid release date but the game is expected to be out in 2012.
