Platinum Games has announced its new game, Max Anarchy, during this week’s Famitsu, and producer Atsushi Inaba sat all the way down to dish out first details at the upcoming 360/PS3 action title.

Described as an “online combat game,” Inaba says that the sport will let large numbers of players fight in close combat melees. From the outline it appears like a web character action game. Bayonetta meets FPS deathmatch modes?

Possible events inside the game range from co-op to free-for-all fighting. The sport may even include a single-player story mode. Inaba didn’t elaborate at the story an excessive amount of, but he did say that Jack from the company’s Wii title MadWorld would be playable, though the fiction of the 2 games isn’t related in any respect.

Once someone describes an internet melee action game it’s hard to not wonder why no person has made one like this before. It sort of feels rather obvious. Inaba told Famitsu that tech and synchronization problems have held the genre back for years.

No details on release date got. Because the interview was only a small piece of a bigger feature on Platinum, we’re willing to bet that we cannot see this game until sometime next year, on the earliest.
