Harker by The Collective - Image 1Remember Harker (Sony PlayStation 3, Microsoft Xbox 360, Nintendo Wii)?

Harker 360 screenshot


Foundation 9's The Collective has remained pretty tight-lipped about their upcoming horror game Harker. Game goodies are pretty hard to come by and we don't even know yet who's going to publish the game. So imagine our joy when we heard that the official website for the said game is now up and running.

Yeah-huh, you can now check out the game's site which already has a trailer and a bunch of screenshots put up. Aside from that, the site seems to be a work in progress so we have yet to meet the characters we'll encounter in the game. As we said, game info remains scarce so there's no set release date yet, all we know is that it's based on Dracula and players will get to take on the role of Jonathan Harker, who's faced with the mission of killing all the vampires.

The screens you see below (as well as the one above) are from the 360 version of the game. And even though they've been out for quite a while now, we're giving it to you guys just in case you weren't able to catch them. Oh, and you can check out the official game site by clicking on the read link below. Harker is set to hit the shelves in 2008.

The business of driving back the ghouls of the underworld has always been a gritty one. Never thought it'd be one that Jonathan Harker would get into, though. Jonathan who? If you remember your Vampire Lit 101 lessons, he is the fiancee of Mina Murray, the woman who would be seduced by Count Dracula in the story... and this writer remembered him as a sissy. Then again, this is what he gets for watching Mel Brook's Dracula rather than Bram Stoker's original.

Anyway, 1UP had a bunch of screenshots and concept art, and a GameVideos video trailer for Harker, Foundation 9 and the Collective's definitely-not-sissy undead-killing title for the Xbox 360 (where we first had the preview), the PS3, and the Wii. And as these visually demonstrate, there are a thousand ways to maim, skin, disable, torch, neutralize, eliminate, and otherwise kill ugly vampires.

And the moral of the story? Never, ever, try to hit on the guy's girlfriend. Even if you are Nosferatu himself/itself. You'll just die full of holes, or worse. (Video below is a YouTube upload of GameVideos' trailer)

Harker is due to rise in 2008.



Screenshots and concept art after the stake - er, jump.
