Undead Knight – Zombie Overlord
Zombies on the go will become a reality for PSP owners courtesy of Tecmo games. Undead Knight places you as a powerful necromancer of sorts who can hack and slash their way around the levels and raise a (small) army of undead to do your bidding.
Revealed at Tokyo Game Show last year it was again in attendance at last week’s E3 conference. Journalists were invited to watch a demo being played as 1 of 3 different characters – a warrior, thief or mage. So far, so unoriginal. The difference here is that players have the option to resurrect their fallen foes as evil undead to do their bidding.
Players need to build their zombie army to take down progressively larger foes but can also sacrifice them to cause MASSIVE DAMAGE [Ed note: sorry, that's a hackneyed played out meme and the author has been summarily disposed of] and also solve puzzles.
The game is described as a cross between Overlord, where you control mischievous goblin things and Dynasty Warriors, a hack and slash combat game. Not much more info is available but ZC will be watching it’s development to see if it can satisfy our zombie cravings on the journey to work.
