EA's Jack the Ripper will be a hero
Killer protects innocents from demons.
Updated on
EA studio Visceral Games' interpretation of Jack the Ripper will cast the legendary British serial killer as a hero.
Instead of disembowelling prostitutes, Mr Ripper will save innocent people from demons and vampires, using an exaggerated array of weaponry and some kind of time-slow ability.
That's what "sources" told Destructoid after the Jack the Ripper game was leaked by the LA Times.
Visceral's approach to the material may infuriate "Ripperologists", but sounds similar to the hack-and-slash treatment the studio has given Dante's Divine Comedy in Dante's Inferno.
Do remember that a Jack the Ripper game is still unconfirmed by EA, however convincing the evidence may appear.
