'3D Dot Game Heroes' Coming to North America

October 27, 2009 1:11 PM

Retro-inspired PlayStation 3 action-RPG 3D Dot Games Heroes is "definitely" slated for a North American release, according to the official PlayStation Twitter.

The extremely stylized title allows players to customize and color characters block-by-block, with enemies exploding into a zillion voxels upon their demise.

The PlayStation 3 exclusive hits Japan on November 5 thanks to Demon's Souls developer From Software and partner Silicon Studio. No word yet as to when it will arrive in North America or which company is bringing it over, but rest assured, it's coming.

In the mean time, why not check out a few gameplay clips? They're just below.

    it's down, but the creator of the game has been doing a lot of updates lately. I imagine when he gets enough of a diff backlog the shack hivemind will return to it for a while.
