"Paradise" Announced

Ubisoft announced it will publish Paradise for PC, the latest masterpiece from Benoît Sokal, throughout North America.

Best known for the award-winning Syberia, Sokal gave new life to the adventure genre, with the critically acclaimed Syberia and Amerzone selling well over half a million copies each. The agreement with White Birds Productions marks the second time that Ubisoft will bring one of Sokal's immersive gaming experiences to players in North America.

A 'point and click' adventure for casual gamers, Paradise has everything players have come to expect from Sokal's creations - an amazing storyline, exquisite art direction and a realistic fantasy universe. Set in the heart of Africa, puzzles are combined with action gameplay, as a young woman crosses the continent to take a leopard back to Kilimanjaro, the place of his birth, encountering fabulous, unknown animals in the wilderness on the way.

Paradise will be available for PC in February 2006.
