EA Releases New Dante’s Inferno Trailer

As Dante’s Inferno nears it’s February 9th release date we’re starting to see more and more info about the video game adaptation of this famous Italian poem. Some liberties have been taken with the story, but it looks like the major tent poles are still in place.

Dante travels through the nine circles of hell: limbo, lust, gluttony, greed, anger, heresy, violence, fraud and treachery, in an attempt to rescue his murdered love Beatrice from the seductions of Lucifer. The trailer definitely shows Visceral's emphasis on turning Dante Alighieri’s epic into a high-octane blockbuster.

Check out the trailer below, and tell us what you think. Could this be a good game? Does it matter how faithful EA is to the source material?
