Brütal Legend is an action-adventure that marries visceral action combat with open-world freedom. Set in a universe somewhere between Lord of the Rings and Spinal Tap, it's a fresh take on the action/driving genre, full of imitation cover bands, demons intent on enslaving humanity, and heavy metal tunes. Featuring Jack Black as super roadie Eddie Riggs, with cameos from some of the biggest names in metal music.
Brütal Legend's combat combines classic action slasher and real-time strategy mechanics. Melee and ranged combat come from your double-sided broadaxe and demon-slaying, pyrotechnic-creating guitar. A guitar solo mechanic can summon objects, buff teammates, or cripple opponents. Command legions of metalheads into battle as you progress from Roadie to Rock God.
Brütal Legend gives you the freedom to walk, drive, or fly anywhere in a fully streaming open world inspired by iconic metal album covers. Every vista looks like it was pulled from a Frank Frazetta painting.
The game features cameos from metal legends like Lemmy Kilmister, Rob Halford, and Lita Ford. The soundtrack includes 108 tracks from 75 different bands representing every sub-genre of metal, from 1970s classic metal to 1990s metal.
4v4 skirmish multiplayer marries action combat with strategic unit-control mechanics. Lead one of the game's factions in a Battle of the Bands where survival is the trophy. Online play requires a broadband connection.
