CAPCOM® ANNOUNCES MORE DETAILS FOR KILLER 7™

SUNNYVALE, Calif. - March 17, 2004 - Capcom®, today revealed new details on Killer 7™, its stylized, post-modern hard boiled actionadventure game for the Nintendo™ GameCube.

It is up to the player to interchange Harman’s seven ‘partners’ and utilize the special powers that dwell within them in order to assassinate Kun Lan, the notorious criminal overlord behind all the madness.
