Today sees the long-awaited release of Eat Them! in Japan.

Eat Them! – the game where you can create your own monsters before unleashing them onto the city streets, will be available from 20th July on PlayStation3 priced ¥1,000. The game has even been given a new title; Eat Them: Hakase no Okoreru Monster, which we think translates as “The Professor’s Angry Monsters”.

SCEJ have created an Eat Them! website to coincide with the release of the game, which outlines the story, game objectives, monster lab, game modes, multiplayer and the different levels.

There is also a Japanese trailer for the game:

FluffyLogic, the studio that brought you the highly addictive tower-defence strategy game Savage Moon and the city-smashing monster mayhem in Eat Them! to PlayStation3, invites you to create some original music for their new social game UrZoo.

The lucky winner’s music will feature in the game and their name will appear in the game credits!

A bit about UrZoo:

UrZoo is a zoo game like no other! It is a social game that enables you to build your own zoo – feed your animals, grow crops, run gift shops, hot-dog stands, sit in the park, and even decorate your animals…but most importantly, you get to breed your animals! And not just elephants…it allows you to breed your elephants with your pandas – and your flamingos with your alligators!

UrZoo is a freemium game aimed at different types of gamers, from the hardcore to the casual: with something for everyone. It will be released later on this year for iOS platforms, although a Facebook version may also be in the works.
