Ranko Tsukigime's Longest Day was released in Europe over the weekend. But it won't be long before this hybrid anime and slasher side-scroller makes its way to the America's. The PlayStation 3 exclusive is the final installment in the Short Peace series but even if you know nothing about anime, this game is still worth diving into.

Recently I got to get some hands-on time with Longest Day and couldn't put the damn thing down. The side-scrolling action game is mesmerizing in its simplicity yet engaging, with enough options to be replayable and perhaps a bit addicting. Check out the trailer above and stay tuned for more details.
