We’re finally starting to see how Sorcery (PS3) is coming together after being teased at E3 2010. The PlayStation Move required title at one point disappeared but we’re glad we’re getting more and more footage and it’s looking great. Right now it has a tentative release date of May 2012 and the gesture based combat system seems to be the perfect fit for the Move’s wand like appearance. So far we know the game will have five realms to test your magic skills, have collectible magic items, multiple spells to learn and potions to concoct. Check out the magical gameplay video below to see how it’s grown up.
