Joining Microsoft published “Happy Wars” and “Ascend: New Gods.” Ubisoft was also happy to announce that the game will also be free to play on the Playstation network as well.
In Spartacus Legends, you take a gladiator and train him in 8 different fighting styles, customizing equipment and weapons. It plays very similar to the downloadable Deadliest Warrior games with the exception that your created gladiator can take more damage.
A good thing to because Permadeath is turned on in this game. That’s right you lose a fight and you will lose your gladiator, forcing you to start back over. You can pick up Spartacus Legends for free on 360 and PSN some time in the first quarter of 2013.
