Today Namco Bandai announced that Bounty Hounds, the upcoming sci-fi action title for the PlayStation Portable, will ship to retailers nationwide on September 12.
Bounty Hounds tells the story of Maximilian, the valiant leader of a ruthless band of mercenaries charged with scouting out planets deemed fit for habitation. The game utilizes stylized 2D and 3D cut scenes which are graphically inspired by comic books in order to tell the story of Maximilian and his band of rogues.
As Maximilian, players will be able to make use of over 500 weapons, battle 40 alien species, and tackle 40 missions. Namco Bandai also promises extensive replayability as each dungeon is randomly generated making for a unique single-player experience on every play through. Bounty Hounds also features a game sharing mode which allows multiple players to battle it out using only a single copy of the game.
Bounty Hounds for the PSP will be available in stores across North America next week for a suggested price of $39.99.
