You may remember the 2010 PSP game, Gladiator Begins. Clan of Champions is its successor in a way, but set in a medieval fantasy world instead of Rome.

NIS America published Clan of Champions for PC via Steam late last month, and soon, the game is headed to the PlayStation Network.

NIS America quietly popped up on Steam with ClaDun x2. Their next PC game is Clan of Champions better known as Gladiator Vs. in Japan.

The game will be released via the PlayStation Network this summer, and a Steam release will follow later in the year.

I don’t mean that as a figure of speech. You can actually fight using head butts in Clan of Champions, NIS America’s upcoming multiplatform action game.

This time the Akihabara based developer created a weekly YouTube variety show with comedians and gravure idol Yuzuki Aikawa demoing different parts of the game.

While Acquire are only releasing the game on the PlayStation 3, NISA’s version is multiplatform.

First in-game footage of Acquire’s upcoming PlayStation 3 Gladiator game.

Acquire announced a new game in the Gladiator series, which strays from the usual Ancient Rome setting. Gladiator Vs. adds elves and orcs to the mix making this PlayStation 3 game a fantasy fighter.

Gladiator Begins tried to replicate the life of a tiger fighting gladiator in ancient Rome. Orcs and elves are honorary Romans in Gladiator Versus.

Remember Gladiator Begins? The series is on its way to PlayStation 3, according to Famitsu. Gladiator Versus is in development and slated for release in Japan this year.
