Brutal Legend is an action-adventure that mixes visceral action combat with
open-world freedom. Set in a universe somewhere between Lord of the Rings and
Spinal Tap, it’s a new take on the action/driving genre, which in this case is
full of imitation cover bands, demons intent on enslaving humanity and Heavy
metal tunes. Featuring the talents of comedian, actor and musician, Jack Black
as super roadie Eddie Riggs, as well as cameos by some of the biggest names
in metal music it's a wild ride in the belly of the beast that is not to be
missed by gamers and Metalheads alike.
The vivid and wildly creative world of Brutal Legend is brought to life
through a spate of chrome, leather, rocker babes, epic music,
fire-breathing/stud-wearing beasts, mountains made of guitar amps, and more.
Follow Eddie as he embarks on a tour of epic destruction with an axe, a guitar,
and his minions as he commands the power of rock in epic band battles.
Brutal Legend’s core gameplay is classic action with a twist where
ranged combat comes from your demon-slaying, electricity-creating guitar. Add
that 1-2 punch to a guitar solo mechanic that can summon objects, buff your
teammates, or cripple your opponents, and you have a deep, gratifying core
gameplay combat loop that is fun for the hard-core and accessible for the
casual.
Brütal Legend gives you the freedom to walk, drive, or fly anywhere in a fully
streaming open world whose art style is inspired by some of the most iconic and
hilariously rad metal album covers ever created. Every vista in the beautiful
universe of Brutal Legend looks like it was pulled from a Frank Frazetta
painting.
