Dead To Rights: Retribution has some new screens for it posted over on CVG from GamesCom.

Game looks rather good, and has a “hybrid combat system” allowing for third-person shooting, hand-to-hand and controlling your dog, Shadow.

It’s out in 2010 for PC, PS3 and Xbox 360.

Namco Bandai Partners has announced that Dead to Rights: Retribution has slipped into 2010.

Bummer.

On the coat tales of that are the following release dates that were also announced.

• September 2009: Katamari Forever (PS3), Family Trainer: Extreme Challenge (Wii) and One Piece Unlimited Cruise 2 (Wii).

• October 2009: Cities XL (PC) and Magna Carta: Tears of Blood on Xbox 360

• TBC: The Witcher: Rise of the White Wolf , Star Trek Online.

Thanks, Eurogamer.

Namco Bandai’s director of PR and marketing, Todd Thorson, has said that the globalization of its Japan-based business remains a key focus and is using Western developers to create games.

“We truly [want to] globalize the development of Western-focused games,” Thorson told Gamsutra at E3. “It happens on two levels.

“Not only are the guys in Japan developing things there that are so well known and have a fantastic track record, they’re really shifting their focus to a worldwide audience, making sure the products they make appeal globally.”

One such Western developer is Volatile Games which is working on Dead to Rights: Retribution.

A few new screens and trailer for Dead to Rights: Retribution have popped up on Shacknews, showing in-game city locations and lots of rain.

There’s a mini dev diary of sorts for Dead to Rights: Retribution posted over on Eurogamer Germany.

In it, the developers chat a bit about recreating the franchise for a brand new audience, and reinventing it at the same time.

Says the storyline starts at “year zero” for Jack Slade and Shadow, and Jack must get to the bottom of a conspiracy.

A single control system will give you the ability to use hand-to-hand combat along with guns during gameplay, and not only will you be issuing commands to Shadow, but you get to play as the trusty canine companion too.

The game’s due sometime this year.

Atari just confirmed it’s to release Namco’s Dead to Rights: Retribution in Europe later this year.

The game’s big “thing” is a “hybrid combat system” mixing shooting and hand-to-hand brawling.

UK-based Volatile’s developing. Press release after the break.

1UP’s put up the first screens and details of Dead to Rights: Retribution, the Namco action reboot for 360 and PS3.

According to a press release, “Dead to Rights: Retribution will form an origin story portraying key events that shape and define Jack Slate’s character including how he and Shadow first come together as partners against those who would bring the once great city to its knees.”

Shadow’s the dog, if you can’t remember the original games.

The gameplay hook this time around, according to Namco, is a “hybrid combat system” that mixes hand-to-hand combat with shooting.

More through there. There’s no date on it yet.
