WHA Entertainment, a publisher and developer of entertainment games based on leading IP Franchises, today announced it is releasing Kick-Ass for the PSN and iPhone April 15th.

Kick-Ass is a superhero action game based on the upcoming theatrical movie by the same name. Players will be put to the test as they take on the role of any 1 of 3 super heroes based on the super characters featured in the movie.



Kick-Ass is a fully 3D action fighting game set in the third-person perspective, where the player can play and control modern day super heroes based on the super characters found in the film of the same name. Gamers will be able to play as the three primary characters in the film - Kick-Ass, Hit Girl, and Big Daddy. The story-driven game draws heavily from the strengths of the intellectual property; an action combat game where the characters finally grow sick of the crime around them, and decide that they will do something about it.



Featuring multiple environments within New York City, players will be faced with eight story missions and encounter frantic super hero action as they face petty thugs and powerful mob bosses. Players will also have a blast with sub-missions and mini-games, to add even more gameplay to the mix. Staying true to the intellectual property, the game will feature visceral combat and plenty of gore, as the player's main goal is to bring justice back to the city, no matter what the cost!



Featuring multiplayer local co-op gameplay, Kick-Ass brings an unsurpassed integration of Facebook and Twitter to the PSN Network.

Many of the Kick-Ass missions are given via friend requests from the FACESPACE social networking site.

Kick-Ass will make its first public appearance at next month's Game Developer's Conference in San Francisco.

Looks Bloody! For obvious reasons it seems that Red Mist will not be a playable character.

@LEEE777 - PSN (Playstation Network) is the Sony equivalent of XBox LIVE, so you should be able to download it on your PS3 ;o)

It looks pretty cool but the last PSN superhero game was the Watchmen one and that was awful..! I really hope this is good though because I was only thinking the other day that a Kick-Ass game would be good!

Great find Nate! Have you played Uncharted 2 yet? Heavy Rain on Friday! :)

Guys, check out my CAPTAIN AMERICA: REBORN Fan Cast!!! Just click the link!

@JoshW I haven't, got tied up with Modern Warfare 2 and now I'm obsessed with beating Dante's Inferno :)

I got Aliens vs Predator too, but haven't spent more than an hour with it... STEEP learning curve to do well in multiplayer :o(

Ron: To be honest, I've been pretty cut off from the gaming world for th past month as I've been watching Lost Season 1 - 5 solidly, lol! I'll probably pick it up at some point though because it looks pretty cool!

Nate: With Heavy Rain coming out and Bioshock 2 sitting on my shelf waiting to be played I havent thought about picking up A vs P yet! Is it any good?

Has anyone here played the Lost game that came out a couple of years ago? I bought it this week and thought it was pretty bad as a game for the most part but good from a fan of the TV shows POV...apart from the awful voice over impersonations! Sawyer sounded like Hucklberry Finn, loL! :P

I can dig it...and when you consider that it's gonna be available on the PSN (the FREE 3rd gen console service, sorry XBOX fans, them's the breaks) it's even more enticing. Granted, I wonder how much it will cost...


SporkofRage is my PSN name (Not Spark, Spork...the thing that you had to use in the lunchroom), throw an invite over, but be warned, I've been spending almost all of my time playing Borderlands as of late.

@JoshW If you're an AvP fan, I think you'll really like the new game. I've played the first bit of the Marine single-player campaign, and it was making me jump at shadows :o)

My main problem is that I made the mistake of putting Dante's Inferno in my Xbox, and it has yet to see the light of day since :o)
