Konami Announces Nanobreakers

KONAMI REVEALS NANOBREAKER - AN ALL-NEW ACTION GAME FROM THE CREATOR OF CASTLEVANIA

REDWOOD CITY, CALIF. - January 9, 2004 - At the company's annual gamers' day, Konami Digital Entertainment - America, a division of Konami Digital Entertainment, Inc., today revealed a brand new PlayStation®2 3D action title, Nanobreaker. Developed by Koji Igarashi, the famed producer behind the legendary Castlevania series, Nanobreaker is poised to become another celebrated Konami action game franchise. 

Nanobreaker is a fast-paced 3D action game in which the main character wields a powerful, shape-shifting Plasma Blade to defend mankind from deadly nanomachines. Players will be able to slash through hordes of enemy units and grab them for offensive attacks. In Nanobreaker's futuristic world, Nano technology was originally developed to enrich humankind, but the nanomachines suddenly went awry. The machines began to harvest the blood of humans and the iron of buildings in an effort to construct an army of monster machines. It's up to the player to combat this threat and save the world from apocalypse. 

Nanobreaker features an advanced combo system for more skilled players of hack-and-slash action and an easy mode for beginners. Nanobreaker is scheduled for release in Fall 2004.
