Chivalry: Medieval Warfare raids Xbox 360, PS3 in December
Despite prior claims of an October release, Activision has now announced a December 3 launch for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions of blood-slicked melee multiplayer game Chivalry: Medieval Warfare.
Originally released for the PC two years ago, Torn Banner Studios' Chivalry: Medieval Warfare pits up to 12 players against one another in team-based multiplayer combat. In lieu of the rocket launchers and machine guns that appear so frequently in online games, Chivalry: Medieval Warfare arms players with period-appropriate weaponry such as bows, swords and axes. This lends the game a unique, more deliberate gameplay style and results in battlefields slicked with ludicrous amounts of gore.
No retail release has yet been announced for Chivalry: Medieval Warfare. Publisher Activision claims the game will feature a $15 price tag on both the Xbox Live Marketplace and PlayStation Network Store.
