The closest thing to doing real magic with Sony’s Playstation Move.

by Verizian on Apr 26, 2012

So, are any of you still on the fence about getting a Playstation Move? Well, Sony is releasing a new title that might help you make up your mind: Sorcery. Developed by Santa Monica Studio (best known for their work in God of War), the title seems to be closest thing to push a hardcore gamer to get Sony’s motion control controller.

In Sorcery, you make use of the Move controller in a way that hadn’t occurred to many of us before; as a magic wand. Sure, that might seem like the awful experience of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2 experience all over again, but with Unreal Engine 3’s technology, Santa Monica Studio and The Workshop’s expertise in the industry, this shouldn’t be a flop for Sony.

You will embark on a journey, as a sorcerer’s apprentice named Finn, to fight the Nightmare Queen, who has threatened to plunge humanity into eternal night. You’ll be armed with a trusty magic wand, which you can use to perform up to eight spells! There’s more to it than just a swinging mechanic though; the game will also feature puzzle-solving, item-collecting and even potion crafting.

The game looks like it’ll be a charming tale of the unlikely hero in a colorful fantasy world and the gameplay concept seems very fun. Stay tuned for some very exciting news updates on this upcoming title from At7addak.
