Rise of the Argonauts - Big finishes Video

Sadly the promise of Rise of the Argonauts turned out to be just as mythical as its protagonists, but in case you weren't convinced by Tom's scathing review, here's another look.

When Hercules, Atalanta, Pan and Achilles have your back, you'd be forgiven for thinking that you're safe from anything. Don't forget, though, back in ancient Grecian times, games were really, really hard.

When you're struggling to placate the Furies or batter the Myrmidons you'll need to know how to level up. Homer knew how, otherwise the Iliad would have been much shorter.

If there's anyone you probably want to honour it's the near omnipotent denizens of Mount Olympus. Get on the wrong side of them and it's going to be a bad day.

Even the Oracle cannot determine the fates of Jason and his comrades, that will be entirely up to you.
Rise of the Argonauts - Pan Video

Pan is often portrayed as a priapic little bugger, all randy and stinking, waving his little goat winkie around like a sex-taser. RotA's take on him is a little more gentlemanly, instead interpreting him as a sagacious and benevolent servant of Apollo.
Rise of the Argonauts - Atalanta Video

Spicy Amazon Atalanta is a dab hand with the bow, and quite the thrower of shapes. Both of which come in quite handy for fending off giant spiky bastards, both in the jungle and at the office party.

The cursed island home of Medusa is every bit as slimy and unpleasant as you might expect. Here, two of the team (who for some reason put us in mind of Flight of the Conchords, must be the glasses) talk about the dangers and narrative choices players will face when exploring its depths.

Rise of the Argonauts has never positioned itself as a traditional interpretation of the Greek myth, so we'll forgive Achille's rather outré double ended sword. Gritty stuff.

There's nothing quite like being left at the altar. Especially when it's because your wife has just been taken out by a Bronze age sniper. Enough to upset you at least, and justifiably enough to send you on a mad killing spree all over the Aegean and the Med, seeking revenge.

Adapting mythology into a game world doesn't just mean taking the original story and assigning the buttons. The team behind RotA has adapted and enhanced the tale to bring it home to a new generation of would-be adventurers.

Game director Ed Del Castillo shows us why maintaining immersion is so important to this very Greek action role-playing affair.

Earning the favour of the Gods is a tricky balance. They're pretty contrary, and prone to turn you into a swan and then have sex with you. Avoiding this is clearly key to a happy life, so listen carefully as the game's director talks about how to keep them chuffed.

As with any Classical myth, the Gods play a big part in the story of Jason and the Argonauts. Learn which of the capricious deities will be tweaking your fates in Liquid Entertainment's game, straight from the horse's mouth.
Rise of the Argonauts - Cinematic Trailer Video

There are very few people, at least in the TV watching generation of UK citizens, who won't have spent a cosy Sunday afternoon glued to the screen as the adventures of Jason and the Argonauts unfolded. Hence much rejoicing and clapping of hands when this Codemasters' title was announced, bringing the epic to consoles later this year.

Rise of the Argonauts is an action RPG set in the world of gods and monsters which was the setting for the 1963 classic Jason and the Argonauts. Indeed, Jason is one of the party which you lead, ably accompanied by, among others, Hercules and Atalanta.
