14 DAY TRIAL // Now that Christmas and New Year's Eve have come and gone, developers and publishers are focusing on their next holiday lineup and Atari is one of the first to reveal it. Easter will see the renowned publisher delivering three exciting titles for Sony's PlayStation 2 and Nintendo's Wii and DS, one of which is George of the Jungle. The adventure game is to be released this Easter for the upper mentioned platforms.
The King of Swing is Back! - take a vine and ride with George the undisputed King of the Jungle. George lives in and protects the jungle of Mbebwe, a wild playground packed with quirky creatures, vicious villains and wacky wilderness adventures. His jungle family includes his best buddy, an Ape named Ape, friends Ursula and Magnolia, his faithful dog Shep (actually an elephant) and Tookie Tookie Bird, says the official description.
All you could expect from an Atari title such as George Of The Jungle is of course missteps, mayhem and monkey business. Actually the lines below express those very same features, in greater detail. Have a look:
Key Features
- Swing, Run, Jump, Climb and Charge your way through exciting adventures as George of the Jungle!
- Based on the classic Jay Ward Series and the highly anticipated new animated series airing on Nickelodeon UK.
- Join George on his hilarious quest through the jungle - dangerous to some, a playground to George to interact and explore.
- Interact with the whole gang - Ursula, Magnolia, Dr. Scott, The Witch Doctor, Shep and of course Georges's Best Buddy 'Ape'.
- Battle hostile monkey tribes, ferocious crocodiles, tiki warriors, and many other entertaining enemy encounters.
Atari has two more titles up its sleeve for release during the Easter holidays. We're talking about two DS exclusives. Those are "Crayola Treasure Adventures" and "Teenage Zombies: Invasion of the Alien Brain Thingys!" We'll be disclosing some information on both titles shortly.
Remember, George of the Jungle is set for release this Spring, around Easter to be precise, for Sony's PlayStation 2 and Nintendo's Wii and DS. The DS port of George of the Jungle should feature a bunch of extras and a different control system (probably some mini-games too) so stay posted for updates from Atari on the handheld version.
