Punisher shooter for PSN next week

No Mercy to cost 10 bucks.

Zen Studios will release The Punisher: No Mercy on the PlayStation Store next Thursday.

So says studio boss Zsolt Kigyossy, who writes on the US PlayStation blog that the game will cost 10 dollars.

There's no word on European specifics, but we'll try to find out more.

The Punisher: No Mercy is a fast-paced first-person shooter with both story mode and online arena-style multiplayer. The inspiration is obviously the brutal Marvel character The Punisher who, like Jack Bauer, considers killing, torture and general destruction as a means to an end.

There are a couple of new screenshots on the US PlayStation blog for those interested.
