To celebrate the launch of X-Blades in the UK tomorrow, SouthPeak Games has brought the game's leading character Ayumi to life with some rather cheeky images featuring the real life UK model Jodie Dart. Jodie, aged 22 is dressed in Ayumi's typical treasure hunting attire which we think has captured the essence of Ayumi rather well. The game offers a magical blend of hack and slash combat, fused with gun fighting and powerful magic attacks and is already available in the US.
In X-Blades, players take the role of the beautiful treasure hunter Ayumi as she battles through waves of enemies in her search for a powerful and ancient relic. Armed with her trusty pistol blades, Ayumi relies on her acrobatic skills and lightning-quick fighting style to cut a swath through the hordes of evil keeping her from her goal. If she becomes overwhelmed, Ayumi can add devastating and upgradeable magic attacks to her combos to defeat her enemies.
“One of the many features you’ll find in X-Blades is the idea of letting the player choose their own character direction,” said James Seaman, Managing Director at TopWare Interactive. “The type of combos learned, magic abilities upgraded and even the layout of the controller buttons are completely up to the player, giving them the opportunity to play Ayumi in any way they like. Add that level of personalisation to the already top-notch fighting engine and sexy art style, and you’ll find that X-Blades delivers for both anime and action fans alike.”
