Chuck Norris, the legendary American actor and martial artist, will soon have his own mobile game, developed and distributed by Gameloft. Titled "Chuck Norris: Bring on the Pain", the new game is created following an agreement between Gameloft and Brand Sense Partners, Chuck Norris' exclusive business development firm.

"Chuck Norris: Bring on the Pain" will allow gamers to play with either Commando Chuck or Ranger Chuck, fighting against Communist troops led by Fidel Castro and Kim Jong-il.

The new game will bring not only action, but also humorous lines, as it's based, besides the real character of Chuck Norris, on the Web-popular "Chuck Norris Facts".

The reasons behind making a Chuck Norris game, as presented by Gameloft, are the following:

- "Chuck Norris decided to make a mobile game so he can hit the bad guys with so many lefts, that they beg for a right!"

- "Chuck Norris fights evil on all screens. Movie screens, television screens and now the screen of your mobile phone."

- "When it comes to making video games, fighting bad guys puts Chuck in a good mood."

For the moment, there are no screenshots with the Chuck Norris mobile game, so we don't know how it will look like.

Anyway, Gameloft says that "Chuck Norris: Bring on the Pain" will be available across the US starting August, being offered by all the major mobile carriers. No word yet about the release of the game in other markets like Europe or Asia.

Born in 1940, Carlos Ray Norris Jr. (Chuck Norris' real name) has become, over the years, one of the best known American actors of all time. He played in movies like "Way of the Dragon" (1972) , "Missing in Action" (1984), "The Delta Force" (1986), "The Hitman" (1991), "Top Dog" (1995) and, of course, the "Walker, Texas Ranger" series.
