D3Publisher today announced that fast-paced action title God Eater will grace the PSP in Q3 2010. Set amid a barren post-apocalyptic world, the title tasks players with rising up against carnage-fueled mutated beasts responsible for dismantling the earth, leaving behind nothing more than a bleak wasteland. Collectively known as the Aragami, humanity’s only hope against these diabolical creatures are the altruistic God Eaters.

Armed with divine Jinki weapons, players set out to restore peace and order across more than “100 exciting missions.”Taking a page out of Monster Hunter’s  highly successful formula, players will find materials during their journey prime  for customizing weapons, shields and bullets. Synthesizing weaponry and related equipment offers  stat-attribute increases in return. Additionally, a robust multiplayer component is promised, allowing up to four players to join the hunt together through adhoc connection or online via adhocParty on PS3.

Developed by Namco Bandai, a demo of God Eater was released in Japan to much fanfare, recording over 1.5 million downloads according to D3Publisher VP Pete Andrews.
