Deep Silver and SouthEnd Interactive have released a launch trailer for the latest side-scrolling, beat-em-up title to slice up its own portion of XBLA, Sacred Citadel. The once peaceful land of Ancaria is in grave danger.

The evil Ashen empire has enslaved its population and is using the orc-like Grimmoc to wipe out the Seraphim, who swore to protect it. In order to defeat the empire you will have to prove yourself as a warrior by riding terrifying mounts, acquiring earth shattering skills and looting powerful weapons and valuable treasures. Grab your friends and join the resistance!
