http://www.gamezplay.org - The digital world of TRON is awaiting a new participant. Disney Interactive Studios today announced the development of TRON: Evolution, the video game. TRON: Evolution is an action/adventure game being created for the Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, PLAYSTATION 3 computer entertainment system and Windows PC. Developed by Propaganda Games, Disney Interactive Studios' action and role-playing game studio in Vancouver, British Columbia, TRON: Evolution is scheduled for release in Holiday 2010 before the "TRON: Legacy" film arrives in theaters.
Set during the era between the two TRON films, TRON: Evolution conveys the story of significant events within the TRON mythology. The game features an epic adventure across a massive digital world filled with high-mobility disc-based combat and advanced light cycles.
TRON: Evolution is one of the keys to unlocking the TRON mythology. The game's story takes place before the "TRON: Legacy" events and provides insight into the film's past. As an integrated entertainment experience, the film will reference elements of the game's story. Fans will want to play the game to learn more about the TRON mythology seen in the film, but each entertainment experience will stand on its own.
"We expect TRON: Evolution to be a premier action-focused game that both stands on its own and supplements a major event film," said Dan Tudge, vice president and general manager, Propaganda Games. "Because Propaganda Games is based in Vancouver, which was the site of the film's principal photography, we were able to leverage the proximity to continuously collaborate with the filmmakers and ensure authenticity between the two projects."
"TRON: Legacy" film director Joseph Kosinski consulted on the vision for the debut video game trailer, which includes computer graphics that were created by the same company that will provide the film's CG animations. Kosinski will advise on the game's vision during 2010 to ensure accuracy with the film. In addition to directing "TRON: Legacy," Kosinski is renowned in the video games industry as having directed prolific feature film-quality game trailers for major product releases.
"The collaboration between the video game development studio and the film creators is exceptional," said Sean Bailey, producer, "TRON: Legacy." "From the ongoing discussions between the filmmakers and the game developers, TRON: Evolution should enhance and expand the mythology and the world ofTRON: Legacy.'"
As part of the connection between the game and film, actress Olivia Wilde stars as Quorra in TRON: Evolution. Wilde's voice and likeness as Quorra will provide players with another direct link to the film as they discover how earlier events within the world of TRON shape her character's future.
"TRON is the most revered video game-inspired film property of all time," said Craig Relyea, senior vice president of global marketing, Disney Interactive Studios. "TRON: Evolution, the video game, will enhance the TRON experience for existing fans of the franchise as well as an entirely new audience."
TRON: Evolution and "TRON: Legacy" are brand new entries in the TRON franchise, updating the unique world for this millennium. The cross-platform franchise being created around the "TRON: Legacy" film will transcend media platforms throughout Disney. The revolutionary 1982 film "TRON" catapulted video games into mainstream consciousness and contributed to the industry's rapid growth and global success. The original film inspired arcade games and video game releases, making TRON a highly successful multi-format franchise.
TRON: Evolution is Rating Pending from the Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB).
