Today, Encore announced that it will feature the new Daredevil game (based on the comics) at E3. Here's clips from the press release...
At the Electronic Entertainment Exposition taking place here next week, Encore, a leading interactive videogame and PC CD ROM publisher, will showcase Marvel Comics' "Daredevil"(TM), "Grooverider: Slot Car Thunder"(TM), and games created by JoWooD, including "AquaNox 2: Revelation," "Cold Zero," and "Chaser." These exciting new games will be at Encore's booth, #1624, in the South Hall.
Said Michael Bell, Encore's CEO: "Encore's game lineup is bigger and better than ever. With premium titles such as `Daredevil' and value titles such as `Grooverider', coupled with a gaming pipeline of close to a dozen titles from JoWooD, Conspiracy Entertainment, and Prolific Publishing, Encore's E3 presence will be our most exciting yet."
Gamers will scale the heights of high-action combat and adventure when they join Daredevil -- "The Man Without Fear," one of Marvel Comics' most popular Super Heroes(TM) -- over the rooftops and through the sewers of New York's Hell's Kitchen. Daredevil will battle Kingpin(TM), ruler of the East Coast underworld, and Bullseye(TM), the assassin who never misses. The game will also feature Elektra(TM), a beautiful yet ruthless assassin, martial arts expert, and Daredevil's femme fatale lover. With cool Hell's Kitchen scenery and backgrounds based on original Daredevil comic book art, unique weapons, and numerous power-ups and hidden secrets, this game will bring Daredevil's comic book persona to life.
