Codemasters has revealed that it is aiming for a fourth quarter 2008 release for its upcoming Action/RPG title, Rise of the Argonauts.
The publisher confirmed that development of the title, first revealed last April, is progressing comfortably and that new information should be forthcoming soon.
Rise of the Argonauts is based on the 1963 stop-animated film of the same name, although this videogame adaptation is geared specifically toward exploration, allowing players to uncover the sights (and perils) of ancient Greece as King Jason.
The developers have also revealed that they wish to distance themselves from the traditional Good/Evil/Neutral factions deployed by many narratives, instead introducing a system where the player can influence the minds of four Gods through the consequences of in-game actions.
Rise of the Argonauts is due out on PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.
