Deep Silver has revealed the first details of Cursed Mountain, a survival horror game produced exclusively for Wii .

Set in the late 1980s, gamers will take on the role of a fearless mountaineer as he climbs into the Himalayas on a quest to find his lost brother. As he ascends the mountain, he encounters an ancient curse: the souls of the people who died in that region are stuck in limbo, caught in the Shadow World. Villagers, pilgrims, mountaineers and Buddhist monks – dead but not yet reincarnated – are all that is left on the mountain. Terrible visions will disorient him, and ghosts and demons block his path. But the question remains – is his brother still alive?

Designed exclusively for Wii, Cursed Mountain features a gesture-based combat system that plans to take full advantage of the motion sensitivity of Wii. Players will use the Wii Remote to look around, sense the environment, climb and fight enemies.

Cursed Mountain is scheduled for a worldwide release for Wii in 2009.
