Manhunt-ing season starts early on the Xbox and PC

Rockstar reps confirmed to GameSpot this morning that Manhunt will ship for the Xbox and PC on April 20. Already available for the PS2, the game follows a convicted killer who is forced to star in a series of snuff films for a demented millionaire. Besides being the first game banned in New Zealand, Manhunt has also stirred quite a controversy in America for its brutal gameplay. It should come as no surprise that the game is rated "M" for Mature. Manhunt will retail for $49.99.
