Conan the Barbarian is a bloody upcoming action game from developer Nihilistic and publisher THQ where you get to take control of everyone’s favorite barbarian.

The game plays similar to other recent 3D action games like Ninja Gaiden, God of War or Devil May Cry where the player has a multitude of up-close attacks, grab moves, finishing moves and the like. The game is tactical in the way that Ninja Gaiden is, you can’t just attack mindlessly because enemies are smart and will block your attacks. Thankfully Conan has a set of rolls and the aforementioned grabs in addition to his offensive moves.

As stated in our previous Conan the Barbarian coverage, the game is coming to the PS3 and Xbox 360 in 2008.

Check out new in-game footage of Conan from Comic-Con 2007.
