Gotham Games are making a game based on the Walt Disney's Piglet, the tiny pink pig.
Windsor, England. - Gotham Games, a publishing label of Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc. (NASDAQ:TTWO) has announced that it has signed an agreement with Disney Interactive to publish Piglet's BIG Game. The agreement with Disney Interactive will bring some of Disney's most beloved characters, including Winnie the Pooh, Piglet and Tigger, onto the PlayStation�2 computer entertainment system and Nintendo GameCube this Summer.
"Gotham Games will strategically enter the children's video game market with a company that is recognized as the global leader in family entertainment," said Jamie Leece, president of Gotham Games. "With the increasing household penetration rates of video game consoles, we believe that children will become more active gamers."
Piglet's BIG Game is currently scheduled to be available in June a month prior to the UK big screen debut of Walt Disney Pictures' Piglet's BIG Movie. Piglet's BIG Game puts gamers in the role of Piglet as they maneuver their way through seven exciting adventures. Piglet may be very small, but he puts on a "brave" face as he sets out to rescue his friends by turning their bad dreams into good ones. When Pooh, Tigger, Roo, Rabbit, Owl, and Eeyore begin having dreams in which they lose their precious treasures, it is up to Piglet to save the day and find the missing items. This is no easy task for little Piglet, as he must not only solve many puzzles, but he must also be brave enough to chase away all of the Heffalumps and Woozles that he encounters.
