Unbound Saga Coming to PSP Store

Vogster Entertainment has announced a brand new game for the PSP Store called Unbound Saga. Although the name doesn't provide any clues, Unbound Saga is actually a sidescrolling beat-em-up in the tradition of arcade classics like Streets of Rage. The downloadable PSP title is based on an upcoming Dark Horse comic book of the same name.

Players will take control of either Rick Ajax or Lori Machete as they fight their way through a city full of bad dudes. Luckily, environmental objects like garbage cans -- and even enemy thugs themselves -- can be picked up and hurled as weapons. RPG elements allow players to upgrade their fighter with 35 more unlockable moves and abilities. According to the developers, the game uses a detailed 3D engine to display the action on screen, although movement will be mainly on a 2D plane.

Right now we have no information on pricing for this game, but the publisher states that both the PSP game and the comic book will be coming our way in June 2009.
