Check out the gallery below for five new stills of upcoming vertical-shooter Damnation from developer Blue Omega and Codemasters. Scheduled to hit this winter, Damnation has flown a little under the radar of late though our interest is definitely tweaked if these images are anything to go by.

Due to the very nature of its “vertical” game-play device, the obvious connection to a certain Persian Prince’s axis defying high-flying will be made though it appears Damnation is attempting to forge out its very own genre all by itself.

Novel game-play feature – check. Visually inspired by “iconic elements of American history” – check. “An stoppable arms dealer hell-bent on total world domination” – check. Vehicular acrobatics and daredevil stunts – all present and accounted for.

The images can be found on the official game’s website where you’ll also locate more information about the nature of the game if you’re so inclined. Also keep an eye out for more news from PS3 Attitude about this gravity shunning Americana inspired actioner.
