Knights Contract goes gold, coming 2/22/11

Announced back in May, Namco Bandai’s take on medieval Europe, Knights Contract, is finished and will be releasing on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 on February 22nd. This action-adventure title takes place in an alternate 17th century, focusing on Heinrich, an immortal executioner, and Gretchen, a witch he killed who now has him under contract to defeat the maniacal Dr. Faust (awesome reference), the one who ordered her death. Players will need to utilize Heinrich’s scythe and Gretchen’s magic simultaneously to overcome their enemies and restore order to the land. I personally don’t know much about the game, but the art style looks fantastic and if the gameplay realizes its potential, it could be a nice little hit for Namco.
