motorheadgameIf you’re into video games, you’re quite possible aware of Victor Vran. We have a dusty XBox 360, we we’ll take your word for it. The STEAM role playing game has been out on PC and Mac since February, and it’s about to get an expansion pack that most metal fans will want to know about: Motörhead: Through the Ages. While the title character of the video game is a demon hunter, maybe he’ll be hunting Lemmy’s demons – Jack Daniels and speed – in the new version. Here’s what the press release says, via Metal Sucks:

The Motörhead game will consist of new game environments that have not been seen in the original game. Traverse war-torn landscapes and cities, Wild-West-inspired landscapes and the Dark Ages Castle where the Queen of the Damned resides, all heavily inspired by and based on Motörhead`s history, lyrics and general attitude.


Motörhead define the themes of the game as Victor faces evils relevant to our own world – religious fanatics, corrupt politicians and power-hungry oppressive rulers. During these quests he will be supported not only by the newly designed Motör-Weapons, -Powers and -Skills, but also a soundtrack with over a dozen tracks, partly never heard before!

Well that sounds promising. It’s not specified what the “never heard before” part means, but presumably they’re unreleased Motörhead tracks. Looks like Motörhead fans might have to stop listening to Bad Magic long enough to play the game. While there’s no release date for the expansion pack, Bad Magic will be out on August 28.
