Get ready to defend your territory with Creature Defense, the new title that combines strategic “Tower Defense” gameplay with card-based gaming. Published by Hudson Entertainment, the North and South American subsidiary of HUDSON SOFT, Creature Defense can now be downloaded for $7.99 on the PlayStation®Store.

“Creature Defense is perfect for strategy gamers who are looking for the next step in the popular ‘Tower Defense’ subgenre,” said Mike Pepe, Director of Marketing at Hudson Entertainment. “The beautifully drawn cards will also strike a chord with anyone who ever played Magic: The Gathering, DuelMasters or other fantasy cards games.”

Creature Defense will place gamers in a variety of stunningly illustrated worlds where they will be tasked with defending their land from invading attackers. After creating a deck where players take into consideration the types, tolerability and elements of the enemy, the onslaught begins and continues until adversaries are defeated, or the land falls. Special skills and attacks are added to the player’s arsenal as the game goes along. With new levels and attributes to explore, as well as 50 types of Monster Cards drawn by well known illustrators available for download, Creature Defense is an ongoing adventure for strategic minded gamers.

For even more strategy, Creature Defense will feature characters from the EYE OF JUDGEMENT™ universe! An all new collaboration between Hudson and Sony Computer Entertainment America will enable players to use 3 popular characters in their Creature Defense lineup!
