Not an Xbox 360 exclusive anymore

Finally, some good news for PS3 owners! More games will come to Sony's next-gen, and this time, we are talking about the science fiction-based role-playing game from Ubisoft, Enchanted Arms.

At first, this game was set to be an Xbox 360 exclusive but apparently, Ubisoft changed their minds and this will indeed become a PS3 title. The game is set in a fantasy world, and features more than 50 hours of gameplay and over 500 characters, out of which 130 are unlockable and controllable.

You will have to take the role of Atsuma, an enchanter who is in training. Once you advance in the game, you will turn from a na?ve student into the most powerful savior in the 1,000 years war. Atsuma, Makoto and Toya are students at the Enchanter's University in Yokohama City. As said before, they study to become enchanters, but while at the university, they learn a lot of interesting things including man-made golems that populate the world. Golems play an important part in Enchanted Arms, as one day they rebel against mankind, although they are created to serve.

One day, while the three cut school and go to have a little bit of fun at a local festival, an apparent earthquake occurs and the golems in the area go crazy and start attacking people. They go back to the university where things aren't that peachy. I'm not going to spoil your fun by revealing the entire plot; I'll let you find out for yourself.

The game will also include more than an hour of anime cinematics and videos, and the PS3 version will feature an extra 10 minutes of exclusive video. If you want to take a look at some character art from the game, you might want to click on the pics below.
