Set immediately before Samurai Jack’s ultimate confrontation with his arch-nemesis Aku, Samurai Jack: Battle Through Time is the great stoic hero’s untold final adventure. The game will be developed by Soleil Games and will include an original story by Darrick Bachman that takes place before the end of the series. Like Futurama, the head is kept alive in a tank that’s capable of flying around thanks to booster jets.It seems like Samurai Jack has caught a second wind after its revival as Adult Swim Games has announced it will work with series creator Genndy Tarakovsky to release Samurai Jack: Battle Through Time this summer for all major consoles and PC. The company is now publishing the latest game from developer Double Fine, Headlander, a weird 2D sidescroller where players take control of the last human head in existence. “We brought those to Steam and had some success there, so we’ve just taken it from there.” “ Super House of Dead Ninjas started out as House of Dead Ninjas, a browser game,” said Johnston. Thanks to early success, Adult Swim games has continued publishing games. Once the browser market kind of fell out, we started moving those games to PC.” “That kind of evolved into doing mobile games. “We started doing browser games, stopped making games based on shows, and focused on working with indie developers on browser games,” he said. On the games side, we’re kind of doing a very similar thing,” Chris Johnston, Senior Games Producer at Adult Swim, told iDigitalTimes.
“Adult Swim on TV, they like to find creative voices and individuals and give them a platform to produce content for that. What started as a browser-based game venture has now turned into PC, console and mobile games.
This culture of promoting new and emerging talent goes deep within the company, and is now starting to flourish in its video game releases. Adult Swim is known for some of the weirdest, strangest cartoons ever created.
