Culdcept Saga character art and gameplay info

 

Here’s a handful of awesome character and concept art for Namco Bandai‘s Culdcept Saga for the Xbox 360, designed by Japan‘s top illustrators. However, it’s not only the art that shines through in this game. The music score will be done by Romancing Saga’s Kenji Ito and will have a story written by a top-notch sci-fi writer, who is currently not named at this point.

The Xbox 360 incarnation of the Culdcept videogame franchise will have players experience the story of two friends engaging in a battle to conquer lands, control the elements, and return peace to their homeland using a collection of cards.

Culdcept Saga will let players choose from over 470 available cards, and it will be up to them to create and conceive powerful card combinations. There will be no such thing as the ‘strongest card’, but only the ‘strongest deck’.

Developed for the Xbox 360 in high resolution, characters and environments will be rendered in photo-realism and will have transforming environments. Monsters put into play will come out of the cards and become alive.

One of the best things we have found out so far about this game is character customization. Clearing various modes and through items purchased in Xbox Live marketplace, you can change you’re characters appearance to your liking.

Speaking of Xbox Live, a multiplayer mode will let you play against 3 other players online, complete with voice chat. If you want to play alone, there’s always the mandatory mode where you can build up and improve your card collection to better prepare yourself for online battles, as well as putting card battle strategies into practice.

Strange as the game’s concept may be, Culdcept Saga may turn out to be one promising game, if the developer plays its cards right. Where it stands right now, it seems that way.
