We’re getting fairly close to the release of EA’s Dante’s Inferno, and as a result, the game is making some headlines around the webz…GameTrailers has posted a video interview with Visceral Games in anticipation for the Dante’s Inferno demo release. In it, Jonathan Knight from Visceral Games and Executive Producer for Dante’s Inferno, fills us in on more of the game’s story and gameplay aspects. He goes into great detail on these subjects and also reveals a ton of cool clips from the game. It’s pretty insightful, so check out the video links below to get the full scoop.
As for the demo, Visceral Games is ready to let you open the gates of hell…on the PS3 at least…The “Gates of Hell” demo is now available via PSN and allows you to:
Discover an epic adventure based on the first part of Dante Alighieri’s masterpiece, “The Divine Comedy”. Playing as Dante, you must defeat Death and arm yourself with his scythe as you prepare to descend into the nine circles of Hell and rescue the soul of your beloved Beatrice from Lucifer himself.
Lovely. The demo is available today to play for Playstation 3 owners and will be available in two weeks for those of you that prefer to rock the Xbox 360. And speaking of PS3-exclusive goodness surrounding the game, today we get word of the newly revealed Divine Edition of Dante’s Infernro.
According to Kotaku:
The Divine Edition of Dante’s Inferno comes with developer commentaries, a Wayne Barlow digital art book, the game’s soundtrack, and a digital copy of the complete Longfellow translation of Dante Alighieri’s Inferno.
Even though it’s divine, it won’t cost you any extra dime…The Divine Edition will be the only copy you get if you buy it for PS3 for no additional price ($59.99). Pretty nice grab for PS3 owners looking to get the ultimate version of the game and a nice “screw you” to 360 owners out there…
“We are thrilled to offer an exclusive game pack for PlayStation 3 gamers,” said Jonathan Knight, Executive Producer for Dante’s Inferno. “The PlayStation platform has a long history of delivering AAA action/adventure games. Adding Dante’s Inferno to that rich catalogue is very exciting for the team. And with the demo now available on the PlayStation Network, players can finally get a taste of what awaits them in the full game on Feb 9th.”
As noted by Mr. Knight, you can get your hands on the hellacious Dante’s Inferno when it is released in North America on February 9th for both the 360 and PS3.
