Climax Peeks at Next-Gen Consoles
The developer unveils high-tech shooting on wheels.
November 02, 2004 - Independent developer Climax announced today the development of Avalon, a multi-vehicle shooter designed for next-generation consoles.
Built using the company's advanced "Tomcat" toolset, Climax describes Avalon as a "truly epic" game with a "unique and original twist." Specifics haven't been revealed, but the company promises advanced visuals and innovative multiplayer modes which will take full advantage of the next generation of gaming consoles, such as the PlayStation 3, Nintendo "Revolution," and next Xbox system.
Climax will be presenting Avalon to potential publishers. The company already has a playable prototype of the game.
"Climax's ability to self-fund the prototype has produced huge strides in development which has allowed Avalon to be fully playable before the game is even presented to publishers", states Tony Beckwith, president, Climax.
We'll be back with more on Avalon as soon as new details come in. Stay tuned.

the pictures of Project Avalon from months ago looked very promising. can't wait to see how this one is progressing. I'm glad to see Climax is supporting Nintendo Revolution btw, as Avalon was previously announced mainly for Xbox2/PS3 iirc, without mentioning Revolution.
