It is our great pleasure to see this title as part of Atari's stunning product portfolio," said Naohiko Hoshino, Executive Vice President, AQ Interactive, Inc.

Set in a realistic world, Bullet Witch includes numerous features inspired by American horror and Japanese fantasy monsters. Combining shooting and magic, Bullet Witch will take advantage of Xbox 360's advanced physics engine by showcasing massive environmental damage, explosions and destruction. Through Xbox Live online entertainment network, Atari, Inc. will provide fans with downloadable Bullet WitchTM content post-launch such as character costumes and extra levels.
