For a game that
hasn't even been formally announced, there sure seems to be a lot of information circulating about the Wiicreation of the celestial NES action-platformer,
Kid Icarus. For instance, Kombo.com (not to be confused with
Zombo.com)
recently posted a veritable cornucopia of concept art for the rumored title, as well as some heretofore unannounced deets. Apparently, Pit has been "cursed for thousands of years for a crime" and has
become a fallen angel -- those mature themes seem to resonate through the conceptual drawings, available
on Kombo's site.
We're not sure if this new media is legit, but
Kombo did break the rumor that Factor 5 was working on an Icarus title in late January. Perhaps they do indeed have an inside source -- though it's just as likely that their early plot details could have rolled off their own forked tongues.
Check out the images, and judge for yourself.
