Action-platformer Samurai Jack: Battle Through Time will be hitting PC and console August 21st, bringing a pretty slick looking package of combat and humour with it.
I have to admit I’ve never watched more than a couple episodes of Samurai Jack, but I’ll have to remedy that before the game hits shelves in August. You can pre-order the game now on your platform of choice if you want to be ready for that fateful day!
