Nintendo is inviting its (M)ature gamers to reach out and touch some undead. Yeah baby, touch me!
Game giant Edios Interactive’s indie gaming arm Secret Stash Games is just about done putting together a horror survival game for the Nintendo DS handheld. The appropriately titled Touch the Dead — an M-rated game — will invite players to “point-and-shoot their way out of a prison teeming with the undead” while taking full advantage of the DS’s touch screen capabilities.
And in an awesomely cool move that has absolutely nothing at all to do with actual gameplay, Eidos has signed famed zombie artist Arthur Suydam to create an exclusive piece of cover artwork for the upcoming game. Check it out —–> Nice, right?
Suydam himself said, “Touch the Dead is the perfect game for me — zombies are what I do best!” Heck yes, it is!
Seriously, what better way to promote a zombie genre game then to hire the insanely awesome artist responsible for the covers of the monster-hit (puns, ha!) Marvel Zombies series to give it some street cred? I mean other than finally unleashing the unending hordes of undead upon the world, each armed with a copy of Touch the Dead and a DS stapled to their rotted mitts.
Touch the Dead will be available in stores across North America this Spring 2007.
