Cartman's long-standing feud with half-brother Scott Tenorman is about to come to a platforming-based turning point, as South Park: Tenorman's Revenge launches next spring exclusively on Xbox Live Arcade.
This marks the second and final game under Microsoft's exclusivity agreement with South Park Digital Studios, as we revealed earlier this year (http://www.joystiq.com/2011/07/12/second-south-park-game-headed-exclusively-to-xbox-360/). South Park: Let's Go Tower Defense Play!, the first game in the deal, debuted at NY Comic Con (http://www.joystiq.com/2009/07/21/south-park-lets-go-tower-defense-play-hits-xbla-oct-7-prem/) two years ago (nearly to the day!).
For Tenorman's Revenge, South Park Digital Studios and Comedy Central are teaming up with quirky developer Other Ocean Interactive to put together a downloadable platformer where players will control Cartman, Stan, Kenny and Kyle against a red-hued army of "gingers," controlled by none other than Scott Tenorman. Beyond the main campaign of (presumably) hopping over gingers and avoiding their evil tricks, the game also features a multiplayer co-op mode (online and off), though it's unclear if that's a separate mode or a co-op version of the campaign.
We'll know more very soon, though, as Tenorman's Revenge will be making a more thorough debut at this weekend's New York Comic Con, where developers and South Park producers alike will present the game and take questions from the crowd. That debut takes place tomorrow at 6:15PM ET. So, uh, if you're not in New York yet, it's probably a good idea to start planning. Head past the break for an exclusive look at the first image, featuring everyone's favorite three animal combo (besides the turducken, of course), ManBearPig.
