'Watchmen' game gets release date
Watchmen: The End Is Nigh will be released next month for Xbox 360, PC and PlayStation 3, according to publisher Warner Bros. Interactive.

The downloadable episodic beat-em-up will serve as a prequel to the upcoming big screen adaptation of the DC comic. The game allows players to take on the role of either Rorschach or Nite Owl II in singleplayer or multiplayer mode.

The comic's editor Len Wein and artist Dave Gibbons both assisted developer Deadline Games in the production of the title.

Watchmen: The End Is Nigh is available for download on Xbox 360 and PC from March 4, with PSN users able to pick it up one day later. The film lands in cinemas on March 6.
