What a nice way to start the day...! A new game has been announced for three of today's most popular platforms: Jumper. Developed by Brash Entertainment and Red Tribe & Collision and published by Brash again, this interesting looking teleportation-based 3rd Person action-fighting game launches for Sony's PlayStation 2, Nintendo's Wii and Microsoft's Xbox 360 on the 12th of February,
next year.

Brash Entertainment has provided a bunch of details on the game, such as storyline and key features within a recently released fact sheet: Jumpers, people with a genetic anomaly that enables them to teleport themselves instantaneously to anywhere on the globe, have existed for centuries. An age-old battle rages between the Jumpers and the Paladins, a clandestine organization set on eliminating them from the planet. The Jumper game extends the film's storyline, following Griffin, a battle-hardened Jumper determined to avenge the death of his parents at the hands of the Paladins. Griffin's quest to find the killer spans exotic locales around the world.

Jumper Key Features:

■ Jump Ability - Use your teleportation skills to "Jump" within hand-to-hand combat range of an enemy to start dishing out devastating blows.
■ Combos - Exciting and intense layered combo fighting system
■ Finishing Moves - Instantly teleport enemies to exotic perilous locations to finish them.
■ Enemy classes - Deeply ranked hierarchy of Paladin enemy types.
■ Exotic Locales - 5 combat arenas set all around the world - Colosseum, Griffin's Desert Lair, Nepal, Tokyo Streets and Experimental Lab Facility
■ Unlockable abilities - Unlockable skills and combos through gameplay.
■ Available February 12th - releasing the same week as the theatrical release
■ Available for the X360, Wii, and PS2 platforms


If you look at the screens we've made available at the top left side of the article (click to enlarge) you'll notice that Jumper sports amazingly sharp visuals - if we're to believe that the game indeed looks this good even on the PS2. Stay close for new screens, trailers and stuff like that, as the game doesn't launch until February 12th, 2008.
