Wanted: Your designs for a new Folklore character.
To celebrate the launch of Folklore this October, were offering you the once-in-a-lifetime chance to design a new character that will be included in the game!
About Folklore
The vision of legendary game creator Yoshiki Okamoto (executive producer for Onimusha, Devil May Cry and Resident Evil), Folklore is a dark, fantasy adventure game exclusive to PLAYSTATION 3.
Two strangers, Keats and Ellen, are both drawn to the sleepy Irish village of Doolin in an effort to solve a 17-year-old mystery. They soon learn that the town serves as a gateway to the Netherworld, a fantastic realm inhabited by nightmarish, supernatural creatures called Folk.
There are over 100 Folk in the game, each with its own unique magical power that you can absorb to help you travel through the Netherworld, and wed like you to create one more
.
For more information about Folklore, visit the official Doolin Tourist Information Centre at www.folklore-game.com , or check out the game details page.
