San Francisco, CA – December
2, 2003 – Ubisoft, one of the world’s largest video game
publishers, today announced that the Beyond Good & Evil
action/adventure game is now available in retail stores for
the PC and the Xbox™ video game system from Microsoft. Beyond
Good & Evil is rated “T-Teen” with a suggested retail price of
$39.99.
“What propels this game into the upper echelon of
next-generation games is not only an engrossing storyline but
the promise of discovery,” said Michel Ancel, Game Creator.
“We’ve designed a brand new, exclusive game engine from ground
up that has allowed us to integrate a whole universe in one
game including mountains, cities, towns, planets and more. Our
goal was to provide gamers an opportunity to experience
absolute immersion through a unique story and free roaming
environments – a world with no bounds, and Beyond Good & Evil
has exceeded those expectations.”
About Beyond Good & Evil
Beyond Good & Evil is set in the future on the planet of
Hillys, which has fallen under siege by a ruthless alien race.
Despite the assurances of the Alpha Section defense squad, the
war drags on, terrorizing the once-beautiful planet and
crushing the faith of the people. From the rubble of a tiny
island rises Jade – a rebellious young action reporter left
traumatized by a brutal attack. When Jade is hired by the
rebel organization IRIS, she learns that the Alpha Sections
are secretly trafficking humans to the enemy. Still wary of
whom to believe, she sets out to expose the gruesome
conspiracy and bring proof to her people.
Armed with her camera, “dai-jo” staff, and unflinching
resolve, Jade plunges into a sinister web to untangle the
truth and restore justice to her planet. But as she earns the
trust of her beleaguered people, Jade discovers that
sometimes, in order to find the truth, you must look beyond
good and evil.
