SouthPeak Interactive's E3 2010 Lineup

by Rainier on June 1, 2010 @ 2:09 p.m. PDT

SouthPeak Interactive has revealed its lineup of titles that it will have on display at the 2010 E3 Expo taking place at the Los Angeles Convention Center on June 15 - 17, 2010, such as Two Worlds II, nail’d, and Battle vs. Chess.

Included in SouthPeak’s line-up for E3 will be the highly anticipated games Two Worlds II, the second installment in the hit fantasy role-playing game series, nail’d, Deep Silver’s lightning-fast off-road arcade racer and Battle vs. Chess, an arcade chess game with a modern combat twist.

About Two Worlds II

Building on the storyline from the first installment, Two Worlds II offers the willing adventurer the thrilling experience of a perilous and daring journey throughout a vast magical land. While undoubtedly rich in story, detail and content, the game also offers an array of unique approaches to classic game elements that push the envelope for the fantasy RPG genre.

Featuring the all-new GRACE game engine, Two Worlds II seeks to offer an immersive blend of two of the most important role playing elements - strong atmosphere and dazzling visuals. Incorporating cutting-edge technology features such as Real Eye Adaptation, HD Dynamic Motion Capture, and Multi-Source Dynamic Lighting, the world of Antaloor comes alive like never before as a true role-player’s paradise.

Two Worlds II will ship to retailers in the U.S., Canada and South America in September 2010 for Xbox 360, PS3 and PC.

About nail’d

nail’d is all about eschewing boring realism for over the top arcade fun. It’s a racer that challenges everything from player reflexes to the rules of physics. Riding on ATVs and motocross bikes with powerful boost controls, players will race down near-vertical courses of incredible jumps, stunts and obstacles. The brutal challenge of the Yosemite National Park is but one of the many places they’ll learn the meaning of verticality.

nail’d’s single-player campaign features multiple configurable modes and races including Tournament, Time Attack and Quick Event. The multi-player mode allows players to compete head to head in a range of race-types locally or online. Earned points will determine a player’s position on leader boards. Based on the player’s performance and ability to pull off stunning feats of speed and glory during each race, they’ll unlock exciting new components to customize their vehicle.

nail'd, developed by Techland, will be released for the PS3, Xbox 360 and PC worldwide in the fourth quarter of 2010.

About Battle vs. Chess

In Battle vs. Chess, The traditional white and black armies have evolved into an army of light with their brave knights in shining armor, pitted against the wicked dark army of demons and beastly golems. Each piece is intricately animated and as players move them around the board they spring into life, ready to wage war. If a square is occupied by an enemy unit, they enter into a brutal clash that sees the foe removed from the board in bloody combat.

Another evolutionary element Battle vs Chess brings to the arena is the addition of the optional Action Mode. If selected, instead of entering a scripted animation when attacking, players challenge their opponent in a beat-‘em-up style encounter. Using a variety of weapons, fighting techniques and combos, players must best their opponent in a fast-paced flurry of blows and special moves –adding a whole new meaning to the phrase ‘checkmate’.

Battle vs. Chess will ship to retailers in the U. S., Canada, South America and the UK in October 2010 for Xbox 360, PS3, PC, Mac, Wii, NDS and PSP.
