Just minutes ago at the ongoing Tokyo Game Show event, EA through their EA Partners development umbrella, have revealed Shadow Of The Damned; a gory third person shooter collaboration between Grasshopper Manufacture’s Suda51 (he of No More Heroes fame) and famed Resident Evil producer Shinji Mikami.

Not looking too dissimilar at all to Resident Evil 4 and 5 with it’s over the shoulder third person perspective and shooting mechanics, Shadow Of The Damned casts the player as Garcia Hotspur(?) a demon hunter who has been sent to Hell to eradicate the Satanic filth wherever he finds them.

While competent graphically and with plenty of dark style to spare (check out the gun decked out with a skull under the barrel), the title didn’t really have a ‘wow’ factor that made me instantly excited about it.

Take a peek at the announcement trailer below and see if it does anything for you:

The title is due in 2011 for the 360 and PS3.
