Guardian's Crusade released

[02.25.99] » Activision ships the first RPG of 1999.

   After a long drought that consumed nearly the first two months of the year, the first new RPG of 1999 has arrived. Activision's Guardian's Crusade, known as Knight and Baby in Japan, has shipped to stores and should be already available in some locations. Those who reserved the game from EB World will receive a poster depicting all 70 Living Toys with their copy.

   Developed by Toshinden creator Tamsoft, Guardian's Crusade chronicles the adventures of the generically-named Knight on his quest to return a lost baby monster to the God's Tower. Along the way, Baby will be able to change into any of fourteen different shapes depending on how he is raised by Knight.
