Sony Pictures Consumer Products and Encore Software have announced a deal that will see the companies team up to develop and publish a new game, starring the incredible Jackie Chan for PlayStation 2 and Xbox.
“We're so excited to partner with Encore Software on video games based on the highly successful Jackie Chan Adventures franchise," said Al Ovadia, Executive Vice President, Sony Pictures Consumer Products. “Jackie Chan Adventures is a tremendously popular property with kids, and one that is ready to explode at retail this fall with over 20 key licensees in a broad range of categories worldwide.”
Michael Bell, CEO and chairman of Encore Software said, “The Jackie Chan Adventures videogames will combine Jackie Chan's star power, amazing athleticism and unique humour with a great cast of characters and compelling storylines. These attributes, which make the Sony Pictures Family Entertainment animated series so popular, lend themselves perfectly to the gameplay and excitement of the PlayStation and next-generation systems.”
The games will be based on the excellent animated series starring Jackie, though no details are available at this time.
