D3Publisher's Matt Hazard: Blood Bath & Beyond now has a date with both Xbox Live and the PlayStation Network. It will arrive on January 6 and 7 on Microsoft and Sony's platforms, respectively. Playing on the same camp featured in the original retail Matt Hazard game -- which parodied other games and featured an aging video game star -- Blood Bath & Beyond is a 2D shooter in the same vein as many classics like Contra and Bionic Commando.

Alongside the release date, D3 has also revealed Dexter Dare, Matt Hazard's burnt out sidekick with a sordid history -- including a prolonged "Mana abuse problem" that we're probably supposed to find hilarious. Check out some new screens and Dexter Dare character art in the gallery below.

From ESRB:
Rating: Mature

Content descriptors: Blood and Gore, Strong Language, Violence

Rating summary:

This is an arcade-style action game in which players control Matt Hazard, a fictional 1980s video game star on a quest to stop an evil villain. Players run through 2D side-scrolling stages and use an assortment of weapons (e.g., rifles, lasers, and rocket launcher) to kill pirates, ninjas, cowboys, robots, and Canadian Mounties. Enemies often spurt blood when shot and occasionally explode into pieces when killed. Blood sometimes splashes onto the screen when enemies explode and their body parts are sent flying. Profanity (e.g., "f**k" and "sh*t") appears on some menu screens.

Good old side-scrolling shooter, hope it will be good.

Remind me of Contra, and with Matt Hazard humor, should be good.

This look good. And 15$. Might be interesting when i'll be done with my new games.

The demo is nice. It feels like Bionic Commando Rearmed a little bit. I might picked it up latter on sale.
