New PS3 exclusive, Rochard announced

Recoil Games have announced a new PS3 exclusive today.

Known as Rochard, the game is a side-scrolling platformer which will be releasing exclusively on PSN.

The game will put you in the shoes of astro-miner John Rochard, who has the ability to manipulate gravity using a tool known as G-Lifter. He can use it to fight enemies, lift and move heavy object and tackle bosses.

He can also traverse long distances and swing using the device, later on in the game.

The game is confirmed for a Spring 2011 release.
