We normally pass on the triable “box art” post but, when it’s done this well, we give it the utmost attention. As many already know, we have a far to wait until its Rocktober 13th release, however, in order you give us something to drop our jaws at, Double Fine Productions and Electronic Arts have released the box-art for there upcoming title. Brütal Legend.

Brütal Legend tells the tale of Eddie Riggs, played by Jack Black. The ultimate roadie, Eddie is the first person anyone calls when they need guitars tuned or stages rigged, and has a love for hot rods and a photographic memory for every Heavy Metal album cover, and the lyrics those albums contained.

One night, a stage accident knocks Eddie unconscious, and he awakens in a world that looks very strange yet oddly familiar, a world where every Heavy Metal album cover and lyric Eddie knows has come to life, and where the evil emperor Doviculus and his demon army, The Tainted Coil, have enslaved the last remaining humans.

The video game to end all video games has finally been shown and man does it look amazing, but is it really good enough to beat the “hot ugly beast”?

The latest creation from gaming icon Tim Schafer and the award-winning team at Double Fine, Brütal Legend is a 3rd person Action/Adventure game starring Jack Black in the role of roadie Eddie Riggs, who sets on an epic quest to build an army of rockers with only a broad axe, a big block V8 and his faithful guitar in hand.
