Based on the exciting new movie Coraline - the first-ever
stop-motion animated feature to be made in 3D - from Focus Features
and LAIKA, the Coraline videogame is coming from
 D3Publisher. The
game will let players take on the role of the adventurous heroine
Coraline and interact with the wondrous characters from the movie
while navigating the scheming Other Mother's web of deceit in a
fantastical adventure through two distinct and interactive worlds.
Coraline is slated to ship to retail stores for Wii,
NintendoDS and the PlayStation2 in early 2009, and is based on the
novel by Neil Gaimon.
"The Coraline movie is absolutely mesmerizing and we feel
that the visual style and tone of the game will bring the amazing
stop-motion animated film and thrilling storyline to life for
players," said Bill Anker, vice president of business development,
D3Publisher. "We're confident that Coraline will offer a
truly immersive and interactive gameplay experience that gamers as
well as fans of the movie and best-selling book will enjoy."
The only videogame based on the upcoming movie, Coraline will
allow players to explore and interact with such immersive 3D
environments from the movie as the Pink Palace, its nooks and
crannies and apartments, and the unpredictable Other World. Players
will engage in unique mini-games and adventures with Coraline's
friends Wybie and Cat as they collect items that will unlock the
mysteries of the Other World.
Coraline is under development for Wii and the PlayStation 2
system by Papaya Studios and by Art Co. Ltd., for NintendoDS. |
