Rise of the Argonauts screenshots and trailer revealed
First announced back in April, Codemasters has finally released screenshots from the upcoming "epic scale action-RPG" Rise of the Argonauts. We have to admit, it's looking pretty epic so far. Few game details have been released, though Codemasters hints that "earning a god's favour will grant players powers ... but drawing a god's wrath may cause them to inflict a torment on the heroes at the worst possible moment". Argonauts will be released on Games for Windows and "major console platforms" sometime next year. Check out the trailer after the jump.%Gallery-4360%
Rise of the Argonauts RPG announced for 2008
Codemasters recently announced a new game being developed by Liquid Entertainment: Rise of the Argonauts. Set in ancient Greece (obviously), the "epic scale action-RPG" will have you controlling teams of mythological warriors through brutal combat in a world ruled by the gods. We're guessing a Golden Fleece and that pesky Poseidon will be part of the mix as well. Argonauts will be released in 2008 on "leading console platforms" and the PC. No other information was given.The Argonauts tale with its massive cast of warriors seems a good fit for an RPG. Call it a hunch, but we're guessing with the success of the God of War series, Codemasters decided to hop on the Greek mythology bandwagon and hope for the big bucks.
