Newest Cursed Crusade video shows off brutal cooperative play

Atlus released a new trailer today for Kylotonn's upcoming co-op-tastic action game The Cursed Crusade, offering a good dose of the game's cooperative gameplay. 

You'll take the role of Templar knight Denz, and your buddy, should you feel inclined to invite one, steps into the shoes of a mercenary by the name of Esteban.  Pretty easy to tell who's who, based on their vastly different appearances.  The trailer also lets us view the game in split-screen, though Cursed Crusade does support online play.  Together, Denz and Esteban can pull off cooperative moves and finishers, or bring a fallen ally back to life.

As the story goes, both Denz and Esteban suffer a curse -- usable in-game, of course -- and must combine their efforts in order to find a cure.  Set in Western Europe in the 13th Century, the men find themselves caught amidst the Fourth Crusade as well.

Originally due out in the summer, The Cursed Crusade has been delayed by several months and won't be released until Fall 2011.  Atlus hasn't specified a more specific date beyond that.
