Comic Con 2008: Blind Guardian lead vocalist and lead guitarist will be signing autographs in the Sacred 2: Fallen Angel area
cdv Software Entertainment USA is pleased to announce that Hansi Kürsch and André Olbrich, lead vocalist and lead guitarist of the definitive power metal band BLIND GUARDIAN, will be signing autographs in the Sacred 2: Fallen Angel area (Booth 5129) at this year’s Comic-Con in San Diego. The band members will be available on Friday and Saturday, July 25 and 26, from 5 to 6 pm to meet fans and promote a new song written exclusively for Sacred 2: Fallen Angel. Fans will also be able to visit the booth to enjoy hands-on play time with Sacred 2: Fallen Angel, the Action RPG set to release this fall on PC and next-generation consoles.
"The opportunity for Blind Guardian to work on a popular video game is quite exciting alone,” said Hansi Kürsch, lead singer of BLIND GUARDIAN. "To have us be able to contribute to and have our band exist within a game as rich as Sacred 2: Fallen Angel has been very rewarding for us, as gamers and fans of the Sacred series.”
“We’ve been long-time fans of Blind Guardian’s music,” added developer Ascaron Entertainment’s founder Holger Flöttmann. “The opportunity to have one of our favorite bands write a song and include their alter egos in-game has been a wonderful experience. It also signifies how great music and amazing games can fit together to deliver an even more enjoyable experience to gamers.”
“The members of Blind Guardian and their US record label, Nuclear Blast, have been extremely easy to work with,” indicated Mario Kroll, Director of Marketing and Public Relations for cdv Software Entertainment USA. "To have musicians of this caliber and popularity not only help and create, but also promote Sacred 2: Fallen Angel is something we're incredibly excited about."
Sacred 2: Fallen Angel will release for the PC in North America in September 2008. Console versions will be released in November 2008
