The Hawk Returns

The Band Of The Hawk: the mercenary group known as Death On The Battlefield lead  by the White Hawk Griffith whose Raiders are lead by the 100-man-slayer Gatsu, will be featured in Capcom's upcoming sandbox Dragon's Dogma.


Smack the Pinata didn't go down as well as planned

I don't know if you can tell, but I'm a huge fan of the Berserk franchise and extremely excited at the idea of being able to hack and slash through dragons and griffins while playing as my favourite sociopath: Gatsu. The ill fated allies were announced last month as news of the crossover between Capcom and Hakusensha broke, but the screen shots of the mercenaries have just come in:



I really hope that as well as the poster boys being featured, some old favourites will make appearances as well. I'll wet myself if they include the Immortal Zodd (aka Nos Feratu Zodd) somewhere in the open world






As well as featuring a demo for Resident Evil 6, there will also be a Japanese special edition that includes a statue, a bookmark, a booklet and presumably non-exclusive downloadable content. Hopefully there will also be a similar special edition in Europe, I really need a new bookmark!

Honestly can not wait!

Press Start!

  1. I still have my copy of 'Sword of the Berserk: Guts' Rage' for the Dreamcast, even though it's a terrible game! I'm sure this will be better, and the inclusion of such legendary characters is a great move.

    1. Terrible as I hear it was I always wanted that game, but I supposed this one will hopefully make up for it's absence and then some! I don't know yet if they'll incorporated in to the character creation or NPCs in the world, but if the former is true I'd love to see some grotesque mix-match of the two!
