Nobilis and Frozenbyte are bringing a new fantasy action game to the PC and PlayStation Network next year. Trine allows players to "create and use physics-based objects to beat hazardous puzzles and threatening enemies." Players will control three heroes that must use the "Trine" to save the kingdom from -- you guessed it -- evil.
Players can freely choose between one of three characters at any time: The Wizard is able to summon objects to help solve puzzles and create new ways to overcome obstacles, the Thief uses her agility and dead-on accuracy to swiftly surprise the monsters, and the Warrior unleashes mayhem and physical destruction wherever he goes.
"This is the first game we publish on the PlayStation® Network and we are thrilled to work with Frozenbyte on this very exciting game project!" declares Arnaud Blacher, CEO of Nobilis Group.

This looks surprisingly good. Amen for the original content on the PSN! Quality over quantity, baby (I'm looking at you, XBLA...)

Well, if Blizzard wont make Lost Vikings 2 I guess someone else might as well give it a try.

Looks great, but the wizard mechanic seems best fitted for mouse use. I wonder how easy it will be with the DS3.

Weird, it looks like it uses the LBP engine.

The music reminds me of Chrono Cross.

This would've had so much more potential as a multiplayer title. It still looks great, though.

Sony,
Please more of these, side-scrolling shooters(that aren't Soldner-X), dungeon crawlers, and generally more PSN titles with MEAT on their bones like this.
P.S. Where's my Fat Princess and PJD?

Wow, that looks impressive and fun to boot. PSN titles are getting bigger and more bad-ass as time goes by.

I can't wait. I agree with a previous post.. about this looking like lbp engine almost.
Here's hoping what they showed so far is only the beginning.

It looks pretty like ICO or PoP, but you'll never be able to interact with all those gorgeous background areas.
