Capcom to publish Darkwatch

Capcom today announced that they have signed a deal with game developer High Moon Studios to publish their flagship title, Darkwatch.

Darkwatch is an immersive, story driven first-person shooter for PS2 and Xbox that blends the lawless action of the Wild West with the blood-soaked horror of vampire movies. Darkwatch will deliver an action-packed, cinematic experience when the game is released in Q3 2005.

"We are ecstatic to be working with High Moon Studios on the Darkwatch product," said Todd Thorson, director of marketing, Capcom Entertainment. "High Moon Studios has crafted a unique and immersive first person shooter which raises the bar for quality and will take the market by storm with its gripping story and intense fast action gameplay."

"We are thrilled to be working with Capcom to bring Darkwatch to gamers," said John Rowe, president and CEO of High Moon Studios, Inc. "Capcom has a sterling reputation for the caliber of products in their portfolio, and for their stellar job in establishing their properties in the marketplace. We could not have asked for a better partner to introduce Darkwatch and help confirm its place as a premier entertainment property."
