'''Brütal Legend''' is an action-adventure game under development by [[Double Fine Productions]] and to be published by [[Electronic Arts]] for the [[PlayStation 3]] and [[Xbox 360]]. The game is scheduled to be released in October 2009 in both North America and Europe. Though Brütal Legend was originally to be published by Vivendi Games prior to its merger with Activision, Activision had dropped the game from its portfolio after the merger. It was later picked up by Electronic Arts, though Activision and Double Fine brought counter-lawsuits against each other over publishing issues, which have since been settled out of court. | '''Brütal Legend''' is an [[action-adventure]] game under development by [[Double Fine Productions]] and to be published by [[Electronic Arts]] for the [[PlayStation 3]] and [[Xbox 360]].

Tim Schafer, the game's creative director, was inspired to create the game by his own past musical experiences. The game will feature the character of Eddie Riggs, voiced by Jack Black, a roadie who is accidentally transported to a fantasy world inspired by the artwork of heavy metal album covers. Eddie becomes the world's savior, leading the down-trodden humans against a range of supernatural overlords using a battle axe, his Flying V guitar infused with magical powers, and a customizable hot rod. In addition to Black, the game will feature voices of heavy metal musicians including Lemmy Kilmister, Rob Halford, Ozzy Osbourne, and Lita Ford, as well as other celebrities, such as Tim Curry, and more than one hundred metal songs selected by Schafer for inclusion in the game. | Tim Schafer, the game's creative director, was inspired to create the game by his own past musical experiences.
