The PlayStation Network exclusive strategy game Under Siege has been a long time coming, but finally Seed Studios has staked a definite release date and price for the game. The company announced today that it will hit on May 3 for $19.99.

The price is a bit higher than your average downloadable title, but Under Siege makes its bones on its game editor that allows players to create maps and modes. The team says this is the same tool set used by the developers themselves, so it should be fairly flexible. Other features include two-player online or split-screen, video recording and screenshot capture, and custom soundtrack support.

Seed is also offering a free downloadable comic book that sets the stage for the events of the game. Unfortunately, Steven Seagal is no where to be found.
