This is not something I had expected, at face value it seems a straight forward fighting game, looks gory, limbs come off, cool. But taking the following quotes into mind:

David: And the story line is different for each fighter. Some fight for honor, some for revenge, and still others fight for the pleasure of ending an opponent's life. We have a very deep story mode which includes many elements of traditional RPG games, but we are being careful not to bog the player down with endless menus.
Eric: Each of the selectable gladiators has his/her unique story, rival, and plot twists. These stories are earned by unlocking events based on player decision. Choosing to allow your rival to live, rather than putting him to the sword will cause later repercussions. These events are different between the gladiators.

The game may have more depth than you would have thought. Needless to say this game has got my interest. I will be keeping my eye on it.
