Namco announces new Spawn title
<i>Soul Calibur 2</i> won't be the only game where you'll see Spawn sporting his stuff this year. Namco has announced an all-new action game based currently in development for all next-generation platforms later in the year.
<i>Spawn</i> (working title) will be a mission-based action/adventure set against the backdrop of a darker, near-future New York City environment. Its intuitive controls allow the player to utilize a range of acrobatic jumps, double jumps, glides and climbs throughout the vast city. A combo-based hand-to-hand combat engine will allow the player to deliver many different attacks and devastating moves to punish his enemies. The player will also have access to all of Spawn’s distinctive abilities – his superhuman strength, his arsenal of weaponry, his Hell Powers and, of course, his living symbiotic costume.

Spawn will premier at this year’s Electronic Entertainment Expo to be held in Los Angles this May.
On a related note, Namco has also entered a new agreement with McFarlane Toys to create a new line of action figures based upon the <i>Soul Calibur 2</i> characters to which of course, Spawn will be included!
Stay tuned for more developments as they unfold.
