Broken Sword gets emotional

Friday 18 August 2006
Broken Sword fans are in for a "tease" with PC adventure Broken Sword: Angel of Death, according to director and all-round gaming legend Charles Cecil, in this latest video for the point 'n' click sequel.

Love triangles, mysterious manuscripts and mythical thousand-year-old ooze form the drive in this fourth episode of George Stobbart's globe-trotting adventures and by hitting the movies tab above you can meet the cast.

With the game less than a month away from launch, we'll be putting on our review specs for a closer look soon. Until then we'll spend the time worrying about the new actress who's voicing Nico (but does she sound French enough?), whether George might be offed in a dramatic end to the series and whether Charles Cecil can manage to pull it all off again in style.
