DeathSpank dated for July

EA has announced that DeathSpank will be released for Xbox Live Arcade on 13th July and PlayStation Network on 14th July.

The game will cost 1200 Microsoft Points or $14.99.

DeathSpank has been developed by Hothead Games which, up until recently, was lead by Ron Gilbert of Monkey Island fame. He gave no reason for his departure.

The game's an action RPG in the style of Diablo, but with a hefty dose of cartoon humour. We've had our eye on it for a long time.
