At the Tokyo Game Show, it was announced that Koei Tecmo’s gore-soaked Berserk video game now has both a new title and a release date. Berserk and the Band of the Hawk will arrive in the US on February 21, 2016. Be sure to also check out the game’s newly launched English-language official website.

BERSERK AND THE BAND OF THE HAWK – TGS 2016 TRAILER
In this work, the action of cutting through hundreds of enemies, fundamental to the Warriors series, is fused together with the dark and gruesome atmosphere of the world of “Berserk”, making various heretofore unseen acts possible, such as using a giant man-sized sword to cut enemies in half, as well as smash or send them flying with the “Cleaving” and “Smashing” attacks.

Revel in the astounding destructive power capable of cutting through multiple enemies with one blow!

In this game, in addition to the well-known and popular “Golden Age Arc”, you will also be able to join Guts and his newest companions on his journey of revenge through “The Hawk of the Millennium Arc”.

Additionally, the extensive story includes an impressive amount of artwork, including footage from the actual animation movie trilogy and new, original scenes portraying more detailed interactions between the members of the Band of the Hawk and other characters.

In addition to the main hero of the story, Guts, you can choose to play as any of a number of characters from all the different parts of the story. Every one of these characters possesses a distinctive set of skills and characteristics to ensure the variety of gameplay is consistent with the world of “Berserk”.

Furthermore, to deepen immersion into the story, the same familiar cast of Japanese voice actors from the movie trilogy and the new animation series were invited to take part in this project.
