Terracotta Warrior Iki: Mechanized Typhoon Knight is a Japanese game set to be released at the launch date of the PlayStation 3 (PS3), Winter 2006. TWI:MTK will take full advantage of the PS3's cell processing unit and will feature all of the signature Goro Goro Iki characters, such as the infamous Crazemaw and the monstrous being known as the Giant Robot Flower Monster. It is unknown whether the voice cast from the upcoming film adaptation will be recording the in-game dialogue.

[edit] Story Line

Terracotta Warrior Iki: Mechanized Typhoon Knight takes place during feudal Japan following the death of Iki's parents. Our young hero is left to fend for himself with the companionship of only his friend Snippy the Kangaroo and Samuel B. Prime, the cybernetic penguin. The overall conflict is somewhat unknown but it is speculated it is between Iki and the mastermind behind his parent's murders, Reltih Nilats.

[edit] Release Date

Due to licensing issues in the winter of 2006, Bunatsu had decided to postpone the release of the game to Fall Quarter of 2007. Unfortunately, continued licensing issues and unforeseen difficulties with the Playstation 3 Cell Engine resulted in further delays. An updated release date has not been announced, but TWI:MTK is expected to be released in late 2008 or early 2009.
