Set in the vein of classic Ghouls N' Ghosts and Wonder Boy 3: The Dragon's Trap, the classic and familiar gameplay will transport old-school gamers back to their heyday, and the self-adjusting difficulty will allow for even the most novice of gamer to pick up and play!

Although Battle Princess Madelyn takes place primarily in a fictitious version of medieval Ireland, the game will, through obtaining a magical device, require Madelyn to be able to travel to other parts of the globe. Madelyn will meet her other grandparents in a snowy mountainside in Russia and do what she does best, save their village! Fight hordes of monsters in Spain, alongside a very special game cameo character. She will also tackle a possessed toy maker’s creation in Italy, and even save a girl to be sacrificed to appease a huge, lumbering monster in Germany.

Throughout the story, Madelyn will be taken on a journey of self-discovery. A somewhat self-assured princess is humbled by her dilemma and surroundings. As she helps more and more people, albeit reluctantly at first, she soon realizes that her journey to save her family isn't just about that, or about her, it's about helping people around her as well and that sometimes no matter how hard you try, not everything you seek is obtainable and that and that sometimes, no matter how hard you may try, not everything you seek is obtainable...

Join Madelyn as she battles through graveyards, swamps, castles, the countryside and more! Polished gameplay, breath taking visuals, jaw-dropping dual soundtracks and epic adventures await!

Battle Princess Madelyn will release on the EU and AU|NZ PlayStation Store this coming Friday, October 18th.

This release sees the final revision of the game, complete with the highly anticipated ‘King Daddy Mode’, which offers plenty more challenges, but also to the delight of many, the difficulty is ramped up to the max as King Daddy battles through hordes of the undead, with only his trusted Insanity’s Blade. With only the one weapon at your disposal, you are given zero projectiles, aside from Fritzy’s power-ups. Even the most skilful of gamers are going to find this extremely difficult!  Stick with it and you’ll find a surprise at the end for King Daddy! As well as ‘Boss Rush’ in which players select one weapon and face an onslaught of boss encounters
