ATLUS today released a new \u201cStory\u201d trailer for The Cursed Crusade, the upcoming action\"\"<\/a> adventure epic set during the Fourth crusade for PlayStation\u00ae3 computer entertainment system (PS3\u2122), Xbox 360\u00ae video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, and PC download via Steam. Also today came news that the game would release two weeks later than originally planned, now storming the castle gates on October 25. A demo, intended to give anxious gamers their first look at the title, is slated to arrive a couple weeks prior to launch.<\/p>\n

The demo, which is scheduled to arrive before the game hits shelves in late October, takes players through the \u201cAssault on Castle Biron\u201d mission, a fortress siege set on a fiery summer\u2019s eve. Under a barrage of flaming arrows and faced with a full armament of defending soldiers, the player, as Templar Denz de Bayle, must fight alongside partner Esteban Noviembre to break through the castle defenses, defeat the enemy forces, and ultimately confront a de Bayle family friend, Martin d\u2019Algais.<\/p>\n

The new \u201cStory\u201d trailer clearly establishes the moral and spiritual turmoil faced by the game\u2019s two main characters, Denz and Esteban, as they quest across much of thirteenth century Europe in pursuit of salvation from a curse that threatens to consume them. On full display is the game\u2019s weighty medieval combat engine, a mix of bone-crushing attacks, dozens of lethal weapons true to the period, a long list of abilities and combos that can be expanded using Victory Points earned by completing objectives, and the fiery, titular Templar\u2019s Curse abilities that cast the world in a hellish orange glow. A tale of retribution and survival, The Cursed Crusade\u2019s dark narrative is sure to satisfy action gamers everywhere with its violence, gore, and drama.<\/p>\n

The Cursed Crusade is scheduled to release on October 25, 2011 for PlayStation 3 system, Xbox 360 system, and PC. For more, including screenshots, videos, concept art, wallpapers, and a special \u201cLaunch The Crusade\u201d section, visit the official website at www.thecursedcrusade.com
