'Talisman' (PS3/X360/PC) Canceled

Talisman is the quintessential fantasy hybrid board/role-playing game for up to four players, either online or offline. Originally scheduled for winter 2007, Capcom has canceled the project, even after trying to revive the development process by changing developers, and reverted the license back to Games Workshop.

Based on Games Workshop's classic board game, Talisman is the quintessential fantasy hybrid board/role-playing game for up to four players, either online or offline. The game takes place in a fantasy realm and is based very closely on the board game through a 3D representation of the map with animated movements and in-game events. Characters are fully animated as they walk about the board, attack other creatures, cast beautiful effect-laden spells and use objects to enhance their actions. Talisman will be rolling its way onto Xbox LIVE Arcade, Playstation Network and PC this winter. The highly anticipated 4th Edition of the board game is due for release from Games Workshop's Black Industries imprint in October 2007.

Features:

  • Electronic board game with 3D characters and environments
  • 1 – 4 players offline and online multiplayer
  • Dynamic camera angles adjust to each active player
  • Up to 25 characters from the Talisman franchise
  • Unique features for each character including strength and magical abilities
  • Voice chat options
  • Downloadable game expansions including character updates, adventure card updates and alternate endings
