As if masks, cruises, headphones, watches, beer, vodka, and boxed wine were not enough, Motorhead are now licensing their branding to video games. To be fair, this actually looks really cool.
Motorhead: Through The Ages is an expansion pack to the Victor Vran video game, which is available through Steam. According to the press release:
The Motörhead game will consist of new game environments that have not been seen in the original game. Traverse war-torn landscapes and cities, Wild-West-inspired landscapes and the Dark Ages Castle where the Queen of the Damned resides, all heavily inspired by and based on Motörhead`s history, lyrics and general attitude.
Motörhead define the themes of the game as Victor faces evils relevant to our own world – religious fanatics, corrupt politicians and power-hungry oppressive rulers. During these quests he will be supported not only by the newly designed Motör-Weapons, -Powers and -Skills, but also a soundtrack with over a dozen tracks, partly never heard before!
The screenshots make it look pretty sweet as well:
As MetalSucks points out, Lemmy is no stranger to video games, having appeared in Brutal Legend. Of course, the new Motorhead album, Bad Magic, is out August 28th. Some of the new tracks sound pretty loud, exactly as Motorhead should sound.
