Activision release details of the Twentieth Century Fox movie to game tie in. This time around the hairiest of all X-Men gets a work over with X-Men Origins: Wolverine.
Hugh Jackman is set to bound onto 2009 cinema screens in a flash of fur and adamantium. As the titular character in X-Men Origins: Wolverine it is inevitable that he would be digitised in game form to accompany the celluloid experience. And as is their want with movie to game titles, expect to see this one on just about every platform known to man and mutant.
Publisher Activision has announced details of the game as follows:
From the award-winning studio Raven Software, the video game enlists players to experience the tormented origins of Wolverine, from his escape of the Weapon X facility to the jungles of Africa and beyond. The game is currently in development for the Xbox 360™ video game and entertainment system, PLAYSTATION®3 computer entertainment system, Windows® PC , Wii™ home video game system, Nintendo DS™, PlayStation®2 computer entertainment system and PSP® (PlayStation®Portable) system, and is not yet rated by the Classification Board.
“We have an amazing team with Raven Studios at the helm, creating what will undoubtedly be the quintessential, true-to-character Wolverine video game experience that fans have been craving,” said Rob Kostich, vice president, global brand management, Activision Publishing, Inc. “X-Men Origins: Wolverine amps up the action by bringing to life Wolverine’s wholly unique skills such as his brute strength, regenerative mutant abilities, and indestructible adamantium claws and skeleton in an immersive experience that is fitting to one of the most enduring and popular characters of all time.”
X-Men Origins: Wolverine is an epic action-adventure featuring a true-to-character Wolverine gameplay experience that takes gamers through and beyond the movie’s storyline. Set in a variety of vivid real-world locales, the title challenges players to hone their animal instinct as they uncover hidden dangers, hunt and destroy enemies, and take on seemingly insurmountable situations while discovering the truth about Wolverine’s tragic past. With razor-sharp adamantium claws unsheathed, the future X-Man enacts lightning-quick combat, evasive manoeuvres, in-depth combo attacks, and an array of brutal finishing moves. Wolverine doesn’t just deliver massive damage, either – he also takes it, thanks to his mutant regenerative power that heals him in real time right before the player’s eyes.
