Sega Reveals VIKING: Battle of Asgard

The Mysterious Viking game that Sega has been working on has been revealed. The Sega company has officially announced VIKING: Battle for Asgard for the PS3 and Xbox 360 for early release 2008. It was developed by The Creative Assembly. It follows the story of 'new iconic gaming hero' Skarin, who must stop the banished Goddess Hel from using her undead army to bring about Ragnarok, because no one can think of anything else that happened in Norse mythology other than freaking Ragnarok.

"Skarin is a cutting edge hero in a fantastic re-imagining of Norse Mythology. Skarin is obviously a very dangerous man." said Gary Knight, European Marketing Director SEGA Europe. "Add in his inner conflict, a confused heritage and a growing distrust of the Gods and you have the makings of gaming's next great hero."
