'Hoard' (ALL) Gets Priced And Dated

by Rainier on March 7, 2011 @ 6:04 a.m. PST

Hoard is an arcade-action game where the dragon is the hero. Your goal: collect as much treasure as possible from a living kingdom that grows around you. Burn down crops, strafe merchant wagons, and — best of all — kidnap fair maidens and force the kingdom to ransom them back for piles of gold!

Collecting gold at your hoard will level you up and give you upgrade points. These are used to increase your dragon’s speed, breath, armor, and health. Your strategy in choosing upgrades is crucial to scoring the most points possible on each map and rising to the top of the leaderboards. You can also complete challenges to earn Hoard Rankings and eventually become a Legendary Wyrm!

Cooperative play is supported for PS3 (both couch and online co-op), so you can get your fire on with your friends. Three different game modes and dozens of different kingdoms combine with a deep reward system and leaderboards to ensure you’ll get your treasure’s worth on this one.

But watch out for vile knights and merciless wizards, who want nothing more than to gain fame by slaying a dragon.

HOARD, already available on PS3 for $14.99, will release on PSP in North America for $9.99, while the price for the European edition is yet to be announced.
