Krome Studios talks Hellboy: The Science of Evil
We’ve already shown you folks several screens (and even a trailer) of Hellboy’s Right Hand of Doom doing what it does best in Hellboy: The Science of Evil – which is smashing things– so, here’s a bit more on the game. Krome Studios‘ John Whiston, Hellboy’s Producer reveals that other than baddies, anything that looks like it can be destroyed is fair game for the Right Hand of Doom.
Speaking to PlayStation Universe, John Whiston says:
…our environments are built as playgrounds for his stone fist. Anything that looks like it will break is fair game. From crumbling walls, trees and statues through to entire Japanese temples – HellboyÂ’s world is highly destructible. You can wield various sizes of “impromptu” weapons – either forcibly taken from disarmed opponents or ripped from the surrounding environment.
Now that sounds like good enough reason to get at the very least, curious about this game, right? Anyhow, Whiston also revealed that the main storyline of the game should see Hellboy going through an adventure that is saturated with Nazi’s, eldritch demons, European folklore, and ultimately lead to a final battle of sorts with Hermann Von Klempt.
Enemies encountered in the game should include a Witch and her creations called Bambinis – there’s even a Bambini Giant. You’ll also see things taken from the Hellboy universe like Japanese Demons, Undead Nazi’s, Frog creatures, etc.
Also from the Hellboy Universe, Other BPRD characters will be playable. For example, in multiplayer, Liz Sherman and Abe Sapien are playable. Speaking of multiplayer, it should come in the form of co-op missions.
As for other things on the PlayStation Network, John Whitson reveals that while they’d love to have a demo out on the PSN, they still have no plans for integration with PlayStation Home.
While there have been reports that the game should be out by Q3 this year, Whitson opts to give out a more vague window. He says: “Hellboy: The Science of Evil will be in stores at the end of the year.” Hey, at least it’s still 2007.
