Fairytale Fights trailer cuts loose

Fairytales don't necessarily need a happy ending, or even a moral, as this trailer for Fairytale Fights demonstrates. The game gets by just fine with plenty of bloodshed and carnage. This four player hack-'n-slash game's release was recently pushed to 2010.

Fairytale Fights not coming to the PC this year


Playlogic Games has added yet another game for PC owners to wait on. Granted it's a game that we haven't really had our radar on but it still means that you won't get to play this game this year while your console counterparts get that privalage.

The game? Fairytale Fights, the Unreal Engine 3 based action game that's being designed as a kind of goofy and violent twist on those fun children's stories. While the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions ship to stores in the US on October 27, we will have to wait until sometime in 2010 to play the PC version. Too bad. We were looking forward to try out the game's feature set that would allow us to "dynamically slice through 3D models in real-time."

Fairytale Fights trailer gets new clothes

Fairytale Fights recently added new characters to its roster. Now in addition to using Little Red Riding Hood or Snow White to hack through hordes of bunnies, players can select Jack from Jack and Beanstalk. However, the character that will probably be catching the most attention will be The Naked Emperor of The Emperor's New Clothes fame. How threatening can a naked monarch be? This trailer reveals all.

"Built on the Unreal Engine 3, Fairytale Fights is a truly twisted hack'n'slash platform adventure from Playlogic Game Factory. Players assume the role of one of four much-loved fairytale characters whose glory days have long since passed. While embarking on a seemingly innocent journey to save the fairytale world from certain disaster, players traverse a series of colourful and enthralling levels filled to the brim with action-packed combat, fairytale storylines and loads of blood. Luckily, many different weapons lay strewn throughout the fairytale kingdom, which players can use to slice and dice their way through swathes of cute fluffy bunnies and imposing enemies alike. "

Fairytale Fights reveals two new characters


Revealing new characters for action RPGs seems to be the name of the game today. First League of Legends, and now Fairytale Fights. Playlogic has announced today that Jack from Jack and the Beanstalk and the naked emperor from The Emperor's New Clothes will both be playable characters in the fairytale-themed hack-'n-slash game, joining the roster alongside Snow White and Little Red Riding Hood. No information on the characters' moves or gameplay has been released, so who knows what they play like. Fairytale Fights is still scheduled for Holiday 2009. Full release after the cut.

Playlogic announces Fairytale Fights


American McGee's Grimm may have just released its final episode last week but it looks like publisher Playlogic will be taking up where that game left off in terms of new spins on classic children's stories. Today the company announced their plans for Fairytale Fights, a new hack-and-slash platform action-adventure game for the PC and other platforms.

Using Unreal Engine 3 as its basis, Fairytale Fights has players take on the role of an unnamed fairy tale character who is trying to save their mythical kingdom from disasters. The game's levels are "filled to the brim with action-packed combat and fairytale-style storylines" and Playlogic claims the game will be able to "dynamically slice through 3D models in real-time." Unfortunately no screenshots of the game have been released but we will certainly post them up when Playlogic releases them. In the meantime, the game is due for release this holiday.
