Thought Sony unofficially announced Strength of the Sword yesterday when detailing their PhyreEngine 2.40 update, Invent Games officially unveiled the game earlier today at GDC. Strength of the Sword is a 3rd person action game, similar in design to beat 'em up games like Devil May Cry or God of War. The game also features a very unique art design, offsetting the hyper violent action with a more Saturday morning cartoon look, similar to the PS2 cult hit, Mark of the Kri.
Strength of the Sword throws you into the sweaty codpiece of the muscle bound Strahil. Formerly the leader of the Upper Kingdom, he was the victim of a conspiracy theory and tossed in jail. Hungry for revenge, he escapes from jail and hatches a plot against those who put him there.
Strength of the Sword is due out for the PS3 and PC. No release date for the title was mentioned. Check out the game's website for concept art and more info.
