Ska Studios has announced their upcomming sequal to The Dishwasher: Dead Samurai titled The Dishwasher: Vampire Smile and I gotta say, it looks bad ass. The only information regarding its release is that it will, of course, be on XBLA and will be out when it’s done. The game will also be in attendance and playable for the first time at PAX East in the Ska Studios booth, so if you’re going, check it out.

The followup to 2009’s Dead SamuraiThe Dishwasher: Vampire Smile is a combo-fueled, fast-paced, stylistic 2D action platformer that features the series’ staple gritty, graphic novel-inspired art style, built on a brand new engine that allows for an even more visually gruesome experience. Gamers will wield new weapons like the Violence Hammer, whose business end consists of a section of girder wrapped in barbed wire and random hardware, and the Painkiller, a six foot long syringe. The Dishwasher: Vampire Smile comes with two solo character campaigns as well as a co-op campaign, 50 quick arcade challenges and an endless Dish Challenge.
