News: Watchmen: Justice is Coming is coming.

Warner Bros. has announced that the Watchmen will be invading more than the PC, PlayStation Network and Xbox Live Arcade this month. They will also be hitting the iPhone in Watchmen: Justice is Coming.

Watchmen: Justice is Coming is being developed by Last Legion Games and it will be a multiplayer "adventure fighting game." Players will be able to enter the world of the Watchmen and create their own masked vigilante and battle it out with other players online.

Like Watchmen: The End is Nigh, Justice is Coming will be set in the time period before the film:

In Watchmen: Justice is Coming, players bring their own unique form of justice to New York City in the 1970s before the film's central story unfolds. Masked adventuring has been outlawed. During this critical time period, crime is rampant and average citizens must take matters into their own hands to survive. Players create their personal avatar and enter the rain-soaked city of Manhattan. The dark metropolitan world is a vast network of interlocking and overlapping spaces that include: the seedy and saturated neon Red Light District; a run down Financial District and its dark waterfront; the downtown back-alleys of Lower Manhattan; a wide open City Park; and more.

We'll have more on Watchmen: Justice is Coming soon and don't forget that March is iPhone Month at Gaming Target.
