Where most publishers are falling under pressure to deliver consistent AAA releases and innovate, Paradox Interactive seemes to be having a jolly good time doing whatever the hell it wants.

Paradox is inviting gamers to find out for themselves with a new trailer announcing the upcoming beta. Check it out below.

There’s really no better way to describe The Showdown Effect than as a side-scrolling action adventure where players can choose a character and run riot on a two dimensional plane, slicing and dicing enemies or just plain blowing them way. It’s definitely worth a look, if only to see if the strategy developer can try something new and unique for a change.
