THQ has unveiled its Xbox launch action title, New Legends, giving gamers yet another reason to be excited about Microsoft’s entry into the video game market. Futuristic technology and weaponry will meet ancient Chinese mysticism and martial arts in what may turn out to be a unique game.
The power of a new, dark dynasty is growing in future China, so a young warrior makes a stand for the country’s freedom. Featuring both explosive weapons combat and hand-to-hand action, New Legends will use an enhanced version of the Unreal Tournament engine to bring its high-octane gameplay to life. You’ll take part in massive battles, wielding two weapons at once with NPCs assisting you, as you attempt to defeat the five half-demon offspring of the evil Xao Gon.
Developed by Infinite Machine, which is made up of veterans of classic LucasArts shooters like Dark Forces and Jedi Knight, this game’s pedigree is topnotch. While New Legends seems destined for greatness, you’ll have to wait until the fall to see if this warrior rises above the rest.
