Inversion Trailer Defies Gravity

From the creators of TimeShift comes Inversion. Inversion will be released by Namco Bandai on PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and PC in America on June 5th, 2012 and in Europe on June 8th, 2012.

Inversion is a third-person co-op shooter that combines hard-hitting, adrenaline-pumping action with a revolutionary gravity manipulation engine. Featuring the Grappler weapon (think: Half-Life 2’s Gravity Gun), players will be able to manipulate gravity for their own purposes. The Grappler can be used in combat situations by maneuvering massive objects as shields or projectiles, and moving camped enemies out of concealed cover so they can be blasted away.

The Grappler is also a key tool for tactical situations and puzzle solving as players can lift, move, or create cover objects at their whim. The awesome power of gravity is right at players’ fingertips.

Also, Inversion is one of the first games to feature Havok Destruction which adds massively destructible environments to the gravity-defying game, including an elaborate cover system that you can all see in action the gameplay trailer below.

PS: Has everyone seen Inversion’s new boxart? The original artwork was straight-up, but the new one is brilliant! It mixes up all the perspectives to the point where you almost get dizzy looking at it while figuring out which way is up, haha!
