Hamilton's Great Adventure (finally) coming to PSN August 23
You probably won't be surprised to hear that Fatshark's PSN explorer-and-bird treasure hunting expedition, Hamilton's Great Adventure, won't be arriving on time -- because "on time" would have been April and that deadline has passed. A subsequent July release date also sailed on by. Today, Fatshark announced a new release date, slyly blaming the delay on protagonist Ernest Hamilton taking five weeks of paid vacation. It'll now be released on August 23 in North America and August 24 in the rest of the world -- just in time to compete with Street Fighter 3. But if you don't want to wait, you can check out the PC version that came out in May.
Hamilton's Great Adventure preview: Fortune and glory, kid
What use is a great adventure if nobody is around to hear you talk about it? In Hamilton's Great Adventure (coming to the PC and PSN in April), the titular adventurer, Ernest Hamilton, is regaling his granddaughter with tales of his conquests through various regions in the world, such as the jungles of South America, the Himalayas and the deserts of Egypt -- each "story" is essentially a chapter, taking players back in time to act out that particular adventure. Each area is set up through a brief comic-style vignette, after which you're thrust into the game. %Gallery-118524%
Hamilton's Great Adventure coming to PSN and PC in April for $10
While being shown a near final build of Hamilton's Great Adventure, FatShark's puzzle-platformer follow-up due to launch in April, FatShark brand manager Gunnar Johansson revealed that the title would launch at a $9.99 price point on both the PC and PSN platforms. Of course, FatShark wants to see the game on as many platforms as possible – they always say that – but right now the plan is to hit those two platforms initially. Keep an eye out for our hands-on preview later today. %Gallery-118524%
Fatshark announces Hamilton's Great Adventure
Fatshark, the studio behind class-based shooter, Lead & Gold, has announced its next project: Hamilton's Great Adventure. A pretty stark departure from shooting up the ol' west, Hamilton's Great Adventure is an action puzzle game featuring an Indiana Jones-esque protagonist. Together with his bird Sasha, he must "crack crafty conundrums and challenges." The game is scheduled to arrive this April, with versions planned for consoles (we're guessing PS3 and 360) and PC. %Gallery-114451%
