Fatherdale in development for the Xbox?

Russian development studio Snowball Interactive has announced its plans to release its upcoming adventure-RPG, Fatherdale: The Guardians of Asgard, for the Microsoft Xbox. The game, which was unveiled around this time last year for the PC platform, is set in a medieval Nordic world around the time of AD 1072. The developer has done extensive research on that time period and has incorporated actual locations and names in the game. In Fatherdale, players assume the role of a few immortal heroes who must protect an ancient artifact of knowledge and take on the evil warlord of Fatherdale. The game will combine role-playing elements with action and real-time strategy.

The PC version of Fatherdale will be released by the end of the year. Snowball Interactive has not announced specific details on the Xbox release at this time. For more on the game, including screenshots, check out our PC gamespace .
