Atari announced today that Stuntman for the PlayStation 2 computer entertainment system, will be relaunched as part of Sony Computer Entertainment Europe's "Platinum" range this summer. To be eligible for the special collection, each game must be available at retail for more than nine months and boast sales in excess of 500,000 units.
Developed by Infogrames' own Reflections Interactive Limited, the company behind the best-selling Driver series, Stuntman thrusts players into Hollywood-style action films, completing death-defying stunts for a series of movies and building a career to become an A-list stunt driver. After completing a series of stunts for each movie, players can watch a full-motion video trailer for the film that includes their gameplay stunts spliced in. Top stunt drivers will unlock bonus items, such as jumps, burning hoops and stacked vehicles that can be used in the game's fully customisable "Stunt Arena."
Stuntman "Platinum" edition for PlayStation 2 is expected to ship June 13.
