Video Game Edition: Full Metal Alchemist 2: Curse of Crimson Elixir

Fullmetal Alchemist 2: Curse of the Crimson Elixir is the fast-paced action RPG prequel to Fullmetal Alchemist and the Broken Angel. It expands the story of the popular animated series which airs as part of Cartoon Network's Adult Swim programming. The tale follows the brothers Edward and Alphonse Elric on their quest to rectify the mistakes of their past. Story: The story begins in Lior, a desert city that Edward and Alphonse visit in the first episode of the animated series. As the brothers are unveiling the secrets of a cult called Leto, they are attacked by shadowy creatures from the unknown. Meanwhile, a frightening phenomenon is sweeping the country; people in many regions are vanishing without a trace. In Resembool, Edward and Alphonse meet an enigmatic alchemist. It seems that he has some connection with both the disappearances and the strange creatures encountered earlier. When Colonel Mustang sends the brothers to investigate a village plagued by these monsters, they meet Arlen, an archaeologist who is studying the ancient civilization of Lebis. Edward and Alphonse soon find themselves headed for the ruins of Siam-Sid, the capital city of Lebis, to discover the truth behind the monstrous creatures and the puzzling disappearances. Key Features: An enhanced and highly intuitive alchemy system allows you to transmute ordinary objects into a huge arsenal of weapons, tools, and vehicles with which you can battle horrific monsters in highly interactive environments. Beautifully rendered cell-shaded graphics bring Edward, Alphonse, and other familiar faces faithfully to life. Nearly thirty minutes of animated cut scenes created specially for the game explode with the same quality and intensity as the wildly popular animated series. Fight alongside the powerful Alphonse with a new and improved battle system that allows you to issue more versatile commands. The captivating and fast-paced story will keep you on the edge of your seat! A thrilling opening sequence created exclusively for the game features the L'Arc-en-Ciel song
