Sample Ken's Rage on October 19

By JC Fletcher
You may be feeling one of two (valid) concerns about Fist of the North Star: Ken's Rage, even if you're tentatively interested in the title.
  1. It might get repetitive like other Warriors games.
  2. You might not want to see that many people explode like water balloons full of blood.

Luckily, Tecmo Koei is giving you an easy, low-risk way to find out if your concerns bear out: a demo. On October 19, the publisher will release a demo for the manga-inspired massacre game on both PSN and XBLA. It won't take you long to determine your tolerance for both bloodsplosions and endless waves of punchables.%Gallery-104050%

Tecmo Koei is pleased to announce the upcoming demo for its upcoming action brawler, Fist of the North Star: Ken's Rage. Delivering a visceral tour of manga-inspired action and mayhem, the Fist of the North Star: Ken's Rage demo will be available October 19 on Xbox Live Arcade and PlayStation Network.

The demo lets action and manga fans experience a bloody whirlwind of justice in two unique stages filled with enemies, traps and boss encounters. Players will bring the pain as two legendary figures in the Fist universe: the titular hero Ken and his battle companion Rei. Together, these two figures pummel and smash their way through the scorched landscape on a hunt for the menacing Raoh, who plans to rule the world without mercy or justice, feeding off of the word's dying population.

Fist of the North Star: Ken's Rage fights its way to stores November 2, 2010 for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.
