Eidos to March Out 300 Video Game

Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and Eidos Interactive announced a distribution agreement for the video game 300: March to Glory. It is being developed by Collision Studios.

The style and feel of the videogame was influenced by Warner Bros. Pictures' 300 film, which is based on Frank Miller's (Dark Horse) graphic novel and directed by Zack Snyder. In the action packed 300: MARCH TO GLORY, the player, as Leonidas, uses their sword, spear and shield and the power of the soldiers in a battle to determine the very fate of western civilization. 300: MARCH TO GLORY will be a visceral experience focused on action and combat, allowing the player to fight both solo and in a phalanx alongside his fellow Spartans. The film's highly stylized production design, including live-action photography integrated with virtual environments, and unique color treatments create a surreal and amazing world in this retelling of the ancient Battle of Thermopylae in which King Leonidas and 300 Spartans fought to the death against Xerxes and his massive Persian army.

The Sony PSP game is slated to be simultaneously released with the film in 2007. Last week, Eidos Interactive also agreed to distribute Justice League Heroes for Warner Bros. Interactive.
