With this year’s big geek-a-thon right around the corner, video game news is starting to hit the web, and Adult Swim is hoping none will hit harder or rock more deathfully than the newly announced Metalocalypse: Dethgame downloadable title, scheduled to hit XBLA and PSN this fall. Based on the Adult Swim cartoon, Metalocalypse is being developed by Konami, in association with series creator Brandon Small (of Home Movies fame). As Small puts it in the press release: “We have gone above and beyond and found the biggest nerds in the industry to help develop and deliver what will without a doubt be the most successful downloadable cartoon death metal game in recorded history.” The game will, of course, feature Dethklok songs, including three all-new tracks from a forthcoming album. No pricing or release date yet, but if you want to know more about the game, check out the decidedly un-Metal press release after the break.
