Back in December, Japanese publiser AQ Interactive announced its support for Microsoft's Xbox 360 and revealed it had three games in development for the console. Just a few months later, the studio has revealed that one of the titles will be in Japanese stores this summer.
According to retail sources in Japan, AQ's Bullet Witch has been scheduled for release in Japan on June 29. The action adventure title is being developed by Cavia, which is best known as the studio behind Square Enix's Drakengard series.
Bullet Witch takes place in an exceedingly bleak near future in the year 2013. Civilization is on the brink of extinction after demons begin appearing on Earth, and the player wades into the fray as a witch named Alicia. Equipped with a broom-shaped gun, players will try to take down the demons and save mankind. Using Xbox Live, players will be able to download additional stages and special costumes.
The monsters in Bullet Witch have been designed by artist Yasushi Nirasawa, who has previously contributed his talents to many movies including Godzilla: Final Wars (2004), Hellboy (2004), and Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within (2001).
In addition to Bullet Witch, AQ Interactive has two other projects in development for the Xbox 360: Cry On and Vampire Rain.
