Most of the information about the title has been released and now it’s just a countdown until the title releases.

Well, now there’s something to watch about the upcoming King of Iron Fist Tournament.

Obscure: The Aftermath reminds me of Buffy: The Vampire Slayer by Joss Weadon. Obviously the survival horror of this title is much different than the campy feel of the television series, but when it involves high school students, then it’s not hard to compare.

Obscure: The Aftermath hits the PlayStation Portable at the end of September, so pull out your PSP’s and get ready for another survival horror title.

Gamers should also prepare for the October 1st launch of the PSPGo.

Check out this behind the scenes video for the game and get a look at the minds behind the game.

The scenarios also feature specialized units that can change how levels complete and to more damage than just the standard archer.
