The game is developed by Japanese <i>Cavia<\/i> and published in cooperation with <i>AQ Interactive<\/i>. Bullet Witch will hit the shelves 27th of February in North America and 9th of March across Europe.<br \/>\nIn Bullet Witch, you play as Alicia, who holds the fate of mankind in her hands. The year is 2013 and civilization is at the brink of destruction, as hordes of demons begin their endless onslaught. Alicia must rely on her innate magical abilities and skill with firearms. <\/p>\n<p>The game is inspired by both western and oriental horror and fantasy. Bullet Witch features a full-blown physics engine, which enables widespread environmental damage, by using Xbox 360\u00b4s advanced abilities.<\/p>\n<p><i>&#8221;It\u00b4s been a great pleasure for us working on this project with Atari, and we\u00b4re very excited about the release of Bullet Witch in North America and Europe&#8221;,<\/i> said Naohiko Hoshino, Executive Vice President of AQ Interactive Inc. <i>&#8221;How well the critically acclaimed Japanese title will be accepted in the leading countries of Third Person Shooting games is going to be a litmus test, and we consider it a challenge as well. We\u00b4ve been working on our upcoming titles and are looking forward to continuing to introduce those high-quality games to the global market in the future.&#8221;<\/i><\/p>\n<p><i>&#8221;Bullet Witch shows a unique worldview with the combination of reality and fantasy through its guns and magical powers,&#8221;<\/i> said Tohru Takahashi, Producer, Cavia Inc. <i>&#8221;Also, by using the physics engine, we were able to have glitzy effects in the game as well. We hope players will enjoy Alicia\u00b4s magical power to blow up cars and enemies and experience all the elements that are impossible in the real world, and we hope the overseas game fans are looking forward to this unique title.&#8221;<\/i><\/p>\n<p>Atari plans also to support the game extensively through Xbox Live Marketplace. The publisher confirmed that five downloadable packs will be made available in every two weeks after the game\u00b4s launch. The packs contain new outfits for Alicia and revised maps.<\/p>\n<div class=\"small\" style=\"color: rgb(160, 167, 164);\" align=\"right\"><i>Source: Press Release<\/i><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Atari has announced that Bullet Witch has been finalized.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":67,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","categories":[],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.livegamers.fi\/api\/wp\/v2\/news\/8362"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.livegamers.fi\/api\/wp\/v2\/news"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.livegamers.fi\/api\/wp\/v2\/types\/news"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.livegamers.fi\/api\/wp\/v2\/users\/67"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.livegamers.fi\/api\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8362"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.livegamers.fi\/api\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8362"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.livegamers.fi\/api\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8362"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.livegamers.fi\/api\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8362"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
