Take-Two signs The Red Star for Europe

The Red Star, the combat-shooter which was previously an Acclaim title, has been picked up by Take-Two for European release and is due out on PS2 on April 6.

The game is based on a comic book written by Christian Gossett and throws players into a parallel universe of industrial technology and arcane magic that's been ripped apart by warfare. Soldiers of a Soviet-inspired superpower - United Republics of the Red Star (U.R.R.S.) - are battling Dark Lord Imbohl and his chief assassin, Troika, the Harvester of Souls.

You get to fill the combat boots of three of the U.R.R.S.'s greatest warriors, each boasting unique fighting skills and styles and weapons, and attempt to unite the scattered Republics of the Red Star and liberate them from Troika's rule.
