If found please contact… Sorry couldn’t resist. Seriously though, Ubisoft in collaboration with ABC studios have announced details on the new Lost videogame. Based on none other than the insanely popular TV show, the Lost videogame will be hitting PS3, XBOX 360 and PC in the first quarter of 2008.
“Ubisoft has worked closely with ABC Studios and the show’s producers to create a compelling storyline that has the same mystery, adventure and intensity fans of the show have come to expect from the ‘Lost’ brand.”
“We’re very excited to be working with Ubisoft to develop a game that captures the same surprise and intrigue as ‘Lost,’” said Bruce Gersh, senior vice president, business development, ABC Entertainment and ABC Studios. “The series has such a loyal audience, and we’re happy to bring fans an additional way to interact and engage with their favorite characters.”
"The sense of adventure and suspense that we strive for in the show is also captured in the Lost video game," said Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse, executive producers of the ‘Lost’ television series. "Ubisoft has done a fantastic job and come up with a game that is visually amazing and imaginative both on its own and as an extension of the world of the show."
Ubisoft will unveil the first official video game trailer at the San Diego Comic-Con International Thursday 26th July at Lost’s Season 4 panel from 5:00pm – 6:00pm (US West Coast).
