QJ reader justin alerts us to an interview with Heavenly Sword producer Ninja Theory and Heavenly Sword producer”>Kyle Shubel over at PlayStation Universe. But before we delve into several game-related details from the producer, lets cover something that a lot of folks are curious about. Yes, Ninja Theory’s Kyle Shubel confirms that there will be a demo for the game, and that it will be released before the retail version gets shipped. As for details like when and what regions it will be available for download, Shubel asks that we wait for now.

On to the details. Shubel notes that a majority of the enemies in the game will be humans, but they do have a few surprises for us. As for the environments in game, aside from the ones we’ve seen already, there will be snowy hills, riverbeds, barren desserts, and a castle city surrounded by waterfalls.

Shubel is a bit shy to give actual hours in terms of game length, but he notes that depending on the player’s interest combined with the likelyhood that there will be a decent set of bonus features and unlockables, that the game should have decent replay value.

For those of you who feel that graphics matter, the game runs at 720p, on 30 frames-per-second. As for online features, tough luck; Shubel notes that this will be strictly a single player experience. However, he does say that they are in discussion to support PlayStation Home with Heavenly Sword content.

Producer Kyle Shubel notes that the game should be released come Fall ’07.
