Mastertronic, the UK's leading independent publisher of computer and video games,today released the latest trailer for upcoming title The Cursed Crusade.

The Curse adds another layer of gameplay to the Cursed Crusade, with players able to utilise powerful fighting abilities, produce flame attacks and discover hidden entrances within the game.

Mastertronic's Product Director Neil McKenna said "The Curse aspect of this title adds to an already exciting action-adventure gaming mechanic. Players will need to master the Curse, alongside over 130 weapons and 16 fighting techniques, to defeat their enemies and progress through the game.

With the end of the 12thcentury imminent, the Pope launches a Fourth Crusade to conquer the holy city of Constantinople. The young Templar Denz de Bayle joins up so he can find his father, who never returned from the previous crusade. Denz will find the truth during a journey through the greatest cities of medieval Europe and the Orient.
The Cursed Crusade is scheduled to be released in the UK 2011 for PlayStation 3 computer entertainment system, Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, and PC.
