Scivelation unveiled for PC and consoles

It's a futuristic third-person shooter.

TopWare Interactive has picked up the publishing rights for Scivelation, a new third-person shooter.

The game is being developed by Ukrainian studio Black Wing Foundation. It's described as an "ambitious, story-drive, action game" which will "transform the third-person shooter genre into an unrelenting interactive experience".

Scivelation is set in the distant post-apocalyptic future, when an oppressive global dictatorship known as the Regime has risen to power. You play a member of the resistance, waging war on the evil tyrant types and, as Hasselhoff would say, Looking for Freedom.

The game is down for a release on "PC and next-gen consoles" in 2010.
