Last year’s E3 had an intriguing teaser for an exclusive Xbox 360 game by Crytek calledCodename: Kingdoms. And since then…we’ve heard nothing about it. Now, the codename has been dropped, with the game going by the new monikerRyse. It’s a period piece set in ancient Rome, with wartorn environments and lots of sword fighting. More interesting, though, is the reveal at the end of the trailer that the game will be controlled by Kinect motion control.
TheRysetrailer had great graphics, but was all pre-rendered, showing no gameplay footage at all. So in the end, we’re left with little more information than we got last year. But at least we know we’ll be swinging our arms to control a Roman soldier, right? Check out more pictures of Rome burning in the gallery.
