Southpeak Games has announced today that it will be publishing Australian developer Fuzzyeyes Studio's 2009 title
Edge of Twilight. Though hitherto relatively unheard of, the game was assumed to be for Xbox 360 and PC only, though the press release sent out today confirms that
Edge of Twilight will also be heading to PS3 at the same time. The
game's website is open and what little there is seems very intriguing. The idea of a "steampunk fantasy" is not something we've come across very often, but it sounds very promising.
The game is being developed using the Unreal Engine 3 which, six months ago, would have had us worried.
Unreal Tournament 3 has since shown us that UE3 games can rock on the PS3 and past tragedies such as
Stranglehold and
Blacksite can be forgotten. We have to say, we're getting some definite
Legacy of Kain vibes off of this one (check out the main character,
Raziel Lex). We're sticking
Edge of Twilight on our radar and look forward to any updates between now and its release sometime next year.

Excellent news. It is nice to see a few more companies port their efforts to the PS3. Hopefully, if enough people do so, we'll stop seeing the "PS3 Has No Good Games" argument.

I'm not very fond of the Unreal Engine. The only game I like that's on the Unreal is GoW other than that it's just not very appealing.

right off the bat i want to say that i don't like the UT3 engine.
under "game info" on their website it SOUNDS like a decent game but all these devs like to come up with great ideas but when it comes down to it they make it just like every other game because either they don't have the knowledge, patience, creativity or the budget to make it happen.
i will not get my hopes about this game, because it's probably just a big bundle of hype with a tiny little worn out idea inside.

A PS3 remake of Soul Reaver would be so awesome. Such a great game.
Unfortunately they would either need to get the original audio tracks for the voice overs or just use the old low quality files, because the guy that did the.... old man....voice....thing.... died a while back. :(

What was wrong with Stranglehold?
That game was hella fun.
But yeah, steampunk is tasty.
