Hothead’s DeathSpank spanking death on July 13

Hothead Games’ action role-playing game DeathSpank will be available for download on July 13, says its publisher, Electronic Arts. Rejoice! The title will be available for Xbox LIVE Arcade (on July 14) and PlayStation Network for $14.99 (1200 MS Points).

The loot-a-thon hack-and-slash was developed under the watchful eye of Ron Gilbert, the creator of The Secret of Monkey Island. You know what that means? It’s a safe bet that it’ll bring the funny, along with a ton of weapons, puzzles, and other stuff that you can hope will make it a fifteen dollars well spent.

Not sold yet? The game also features cooperative play on a single console, so you can hack, bash, and loot with a buddy from your couch.
