Konami Announces Vandal Hearts:
Flames of Judgment on Xbox LIVE Arcade and PSN

Marking the Franchise’s Next
Generation Debut, Rich and Deep Story Serves As Prequel To The Original Vandal
Hearts

Konami Digital Entertainment
announced today that Vandal Hearts: Flames of Judgment, the first
next-generation installment for the classic tactical RPG series, will be
available on Xbox LIVE Arcade for the Xbox 360 and the PLAYSTATION Network.
Featuring newly designed mechanics, Flames of Judgment combines the speedy RPG
pace of the original with top-notch visual presentation. The rich storyline
expands the universe further serving as the prequel to the original Vandal
Hearts.

On the continent of Sostegaria, two
rival kingdoms stand on the brink of war. Caught in the tide of battle is young
orphan Tobias Martin. Driven to defend his homeland, and to avenge those already
fallen, Tobias enlists with his comrades to fight for peace. But all is not what
it seems, and they face a threat far deadlier – and closer – than they know. As
the massive battle unfolds across expansive environments, players will
experience party members adapting to their style of gameplay broadened by a deep
range of character customization options.

Vandal Hearts: Flames of Judgment
will be released for Xbox LIVE Arcade for Xbox 360 in August 2009 and the
PLAYSTATION Network in September 2009.
