What’s the point in blending in? Sure, you totally could release another first-person shooter set in a contemporary conflict — or you could be 3D Dot Game Heroes. Apparently the game has the most interesting hero in 3D. Well, that’s according to this trailer, which deserves some kind of award for being straight-up bonkers.

And The Award For Best Video Game Visual Style Goes To...

One of our most anticipated, yet understated, releases of this year, 3D Dot Game Heroes, has been announced for release this coming May 14th in Europe. That’s just a few days after the US release (May 11th).

The game’s a next-generation re-imagining of something akin to Nintendo’s Legend Of Zelda. Really should be on everyone’s radar this game.

Oh innuendo, our good friend whom never fails to raise a smile across our wizened, jaded old lips. Take this trailer for the upcoming PS3 exclusive 3D Dot Game Heroes. It’s supposed to be about increasing the size of your weapon, but we can’t seem to say that without sounding filthy.

Atlus are playing a joke on us, right?

3D Dot Game Heroes Is Coming To Europe This May.

When it comes to super-obscure Japanese RPGs on Playstation 3, it seems like Demons Souls taught everyone a lesson: obscure as the games may be by nature, people still want to play them. Since its launch in the US, the Playstation 3 exclusive Demons Souls has become somewhat of a cult classic, requiring a reprint due to exceeding sales.

With Demons Souls having seen launch in the US a good few years back, From Software have since released 3D Dot Game Heroes, an homage to classic Legend Of Zelda titles. Recognising the importance of these titles worldwide, SCEE has today announced on the Playstation Blog that 3D Dot Game Heroes will see release in Europe.

The game’s due in May, and will be published by SouthPeak games exclusively for the Playstation 3. Consider us absolutely stoked.

"Hai, I'm A 3D 2D Version Of A 3D Character."

What do you do if you have pre-launch copy of 3D Dot Game Heroes. Duhhh, the answer’s obvious – recreate Metal Gear Solid 4’s protagonist, Old Snake, in the character editor of course.

You guys are so slow.
