Retro-style arcade beat ‘em up Invincible Tiger: The Legend of Han Tao is now out on XBLA for 1200 MS points/$15. Published by NAMCO BANDAI Games, Invincible Tiger was developed by Blitz Arcade, a division of Blitz Games Studios. The game follows the hero as he battles across ancient China to reclaim the Star of Destiny from the Evil Overlord. Along the way he fights the Overlord’s wicked hoards, which range from henchmen to the undead. The ‘70s Kung-Fu movie-style side-scroller will be available on PSN in the US from tomorrow (27 August 2009).
Ollie Clarke said: “We’re really pleased with Invincible Tiger; it’s been quite a journey getting to this stage and it’s brilliant to see such a quality game at the end of it. We aimed to first make a great retro-Arcade game that’s easy to play but difficult to master first and then included a great Digital 3D experience second. Please turn up the volume and enjoy the splintering Kung Fu soundtrack as well. We really hope people enjoy playing the game as much as we have had while making it.”
