News: Also gets a title change and a new release date.

Gamecock previously announced they would be working with Spark Unlimited (the team behind Call of Duty: Finest Hour) on a new first person shooter title Legendary: The Box. Today, they announced a few new details about the game that is now known simply as Legendary.

The game is now coming to the Xbox 360 and PS3, in addition to the previously announced PC version. It has also been pushed back to the summer after originally being scheduled for a spring release.

The game's plot still involves master thief Charles Deckard after he accidentally released the demons that reside in Pandora's Box:

Legendary tells the story of Charles Deckard, an art thief who is duped into stealing Pandora's Box. When he inadvertently opens it, he releases hordes of beasts thought to be fictional Ц such as werewolves and gryphons Ц into an unprepared modern world. A full scale war between man and myth begins, and it is quickly complicated by the actions of powerful secret societies. As the person responsible for releasing this terror, Deckard's unwittingly become the only person capable of containing it once more and saving civilization from being destroyed by the terrifying creatures.

УI'm happy to report that the team on Legendary is well on target for a simultaneous multi-platform launch this summer,Ф said Rick Stults, Console Chief for Gamecock Media Group. УIt's no easy feat to pull this off on a game of this caliber, but Spark Unlimited is a talented group.Ф

We'll have more on Legendary soon.
