Outland EU release date

Out at the end of the month.

Super Stardust HD and Dead Nation developer Housemarque's downloadable game Outland launches on the EU PlayStation Network and Xbox Live Arcade on 27th April, Ubisoft has confirmed to Eurogamer.

It hits the US PlayStation Store on 26th April.

Outland's like a cross between old school Prince of Persia and cult classic shmup Ikaruga. Tapping L2 shifts you between blue and red energy alignments, allowing you to harmlessly absorb same colour projectiles. There's story co-op and co-op challenge rooms, too.

Outland was announced as a Ubisoft-published PSN and Xbox Live Arcade game last year.

A new trailer is below.
