The game features the heroic double act of Garcia Hotspur and his talking skull torch, Johnson. Johnson also morphs into a variety of bone-firing fire-arms to help Garcia rescue his girlfriend from the depths of hell.
We caught up with Suda 51 earlier this month and asked him about the game and the relationship that Garcia has with his Johnson.
Suda said: "Garcia is a cool, muscular guy, as opposed to Johnson who's really chatty. You know, Johnson's the kind of guy who sometimes gets on your nerve because he's chatting so much, but I think we have a good balance between them. I have the image of The I.T. Crowd for them."
Shadows of the Damned is scheduled for release on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 in June.
