ATARI and Telltale, Inc. today announced a new partnership to bring
Sam & Max to retail stores worldwide with PC and Wii versions
of the duo's most recent escapades, Sam & Max Season Two.
Everyone’s favourite freelance police are back for more of the
surreal stories and offbeat laughs that make the Sam & Max
games series one-of-a-kind. Currently available as episodic
downloads for PC only, publisher ATARI is bringing Sam & Max
Season Two to retailers worldwide for PC and Wii in 2009.
Sam and Max are on the job again in the critically acclaimed Sam
& Max Season Two brimming with crime-fighting adventure and
chaos. Structured like a TV season, each of the five episodes has
its own self-contained plot while together they form part of a
season-long mystery. Like the best TV series, Sam & Max Season
Two draws the player in with great characters and multiple
intertwined plot lines, building to a high stakes climax in the
season finale.
The crazed journey begins with a giant robot attack and never lets
up, taking the crime-fighters on a series of wild missions boasting
twisted storylines and engaging gameplay with their own unique brand
of justice that takes them from frozen arctic regions to the fiery
opposite end of the spectrum.
As with DVD box sets of popular TV series, bringing the game to
retail lets its creators reach a new audience of gamers who
otherwise might have led a life deprived of the joy only Sam & Max
can bring. Sam & Max Season Two for Wii and PC is the first
time this release has been localised, with full French and German
versions available on the disk along with Spanish and Italian
subtitles, so international fans can enjoy the fun in their mother
tongue.
Created by Steve Purcell, Sam & Max first got their start in the
indie comic book scene in the 1980’s and the duo have since become a
well-loved phenomenon in both the comic scene and with the
brilliantly addictive and entertaining videogames. |
