Game inspired by legendary film mixing turn-based strategy and real-time combat; to hit UK stores next Friday.
LONDON (10th November 2006) – Vivendi Games’ (“VG”) Sierra Entertainment has created Scarface™: Money. Power. Respect., a unique game designed specifically for the PSP® (PlayStation®Portable) system that combines turn-based strategy gameplay with real-time combat. Licensed by Universal Studios Consumer Products Group and developed by FarSight Studios, Scarface: Money. Power. Respect. enables gamers to relive Tony Montana’s epic rise to power in the drug-fueled world of 1983 Miami and will be available at retail stores across the UK on the 17 th November 2006.
Sierra Entertainment also released Scarface: The World Is Yours, an open-world action game on 13th October 2006 which immediately shot to the top of the UK charts. Scarface: The World Is Yours was developed by Radical Entertainment for the PlayStation®2 computer entertainment system, the Xbox® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft and Windows PC.
Inspired by the epic film’s original storyline, Scarface: Money. Power. Respect. thrusts gamers into a deep and engaging strategy game as Tony Montana, where the goal is to battle and defeat competing drug cartels and conquer Miami turf-by-turf, eventually becoming the one-and-only Kingpin of the city.
“Scarface: Money. Power. Respect. challenges players to strategically direct Tony Montana’s legendary and meteoric ascent to the biggest drug kingpin in Miami,” said Cindy Cook, Chief Strategy and Marketing Officer for Vivendi Games. “Using the PSP platform’s advanced functionality and multiplayer capabilities, Scarface: Money. Power. Respect. delivers a unique and challenging strategy experience combined with real-time combat that is fully immersed in the authentic world of the film.”
Featuring both single- and multi-player modes, Scarface: Money. Power. Respect. challenges players to make critical strategic decisions to rise from humble beginnings to directing an army of henchmen and hired gunmen through detailed scenarios of conquest and domination.
In the story-based single-player mode, gamers complete a series of missions based on scenes from the original movie to conquer “turfs” in Miami. Players need to direct large-scale citywide strategic commands to complete their conquest as well as direct street-level real-time combat. The game challenges gamers to handle larger territory, additional adversaries and new profit-making opportunities through increased drug trafficking.
The wireless multi-player mode pits up-to-four gamers playing as criminal cartels in a race to make money and conquer turf. The multi-player battle begins with a “Land Grab,” where each cartel lays claim to their share of Miami. Through turn-based strategy showdowns and real-time combat, each player will manage the production and distribution of drugs while building up enough cartel strength to overpower adversaries, take their turf and eventually, rule the Miami drug scene.
Scarface: Money. Power. Respect. will hit stores across the UK on 17th November 2006.
