"As publisher of the upcoming Action RPG Sacred 2: Fallen Angel, we are delighted to spotlight these great bands that share a North American record label with BLIND GUARDIAN," stated Mario Kroll, Marketing and PR Director for cdv Software Entertainment USA. "Having BLIND GUARDIAN perform a very special song in-game, and having enjoyed the tremendous support from Nuclear Blast records, this is a great opportunity to give back to heavy metal fans that we're certain will enjoy not only the great music from the four bands on the Death by Decibels Tour 2008, but also Sacred 2: Fallen Angel on PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3."

We just received confirmation that leading video game publisher cdv USA, has decided to sponsor KATAKLYSM's upcoming tour with the promotion of its new game Sacred 2: Fallen Angel! We’re stoked as hell with this news and our bus will now be a rolling billboard. We’re proud to have been chosen and this is a great tour with great bands (Switzerland’s ELUVEITIE and Norway’s KEEP OF KALESSIN) that also happen to be great friends.
