UTV Ignition is set to release El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron in Japan on the 28 April for the PS3 and 360.

The game follows the alternative telling of biblical mythology as narrated in the ‘heretical’ Book of Enoch, part of the Dead Sea Scrolls, which may seem a weird topic for a game's subject matter, but it does look very promising. The game is being developed by UTV's internal Japanese studio whose credits include Devil May Cry, Resident Evil, and Okami.

“With an immensely talented development team combined with the game’s highly inspired action game play and strikingly unique art style, I am proud to deliver this game to gamers all over the world. I hope you will enjoy the wonderful game experience of El Shaddai,” said Game Director Sawaki Takeyasu.

NO date has been set for North America or Europe as yet.
