DEEP
SILVER ANNOUNCES ‘RIDE TO HELL’:
A BRAND NEW MULTI-PLATFORM GAME FOR
INTERNATIONAL RELEASE
July
8th, 2008: Global video game developer and publisher
Deep Silver today released early details of its very
first US bound title ‘Ride to Hell’ produced
by their internal development studio.
The
game is set in the last years of the roaring 1960’s,
a time of Sex, Drugs and Rock ‘N Roll. The biker
movement, rock music and the hippie counterculture all
add to the fascinating atmosphere to be experienced
in ‘Ride to Hell’.
Action
loaded from the very start with free roaming environments,
players can immerse themselves in the liberty and freedom
of riding full throttle with their gang on a multitude
of different vehicles through the dusty flats of Western
America. Protecting their turf, their brothers and their
machines from rival gangs is just a taste of what this
epic game will involve.
‘Ride
to Hell’ is not for the faint hearted; it’s
aimed heavily at the player who wants to become fully
involved in the original West Coast biker culture. With
its hard drinking, bare knuckle environment, this is
as close to the action as you can get.
In
a movie style production model, the internal Deep Silver
studio is teaming up with leading creative companies
such as Eutechnyx, Perspective Studios, and others,
to bring the authentic and massive game world of ‘Ride
to Hell’ to life.
“The
Deep Silver development team has worked on some of the
greatest and grittiest, freeform-style games to ever
hit the market,” Cathy Tische, Vice President
of Sales and Marketing at Deep Silver, Inc. “They
are pulling out all the stops to bring the biker gang
world alive in Ride to Hell, from the 1960s art style,
music and scenery to the completely raw and intense
game play.”
"Ride
to Hell is one of Deep Silver’s largest global
multiplatform game launches to date and one that will
put Deep Silver on the map in the US,” says Hannes
Seifert, Managing Director at the Deep Silver development
studio. “Ride to Hell captures the spirit of the
biker movement in the 1960s, while delivering an authentic,
action-packed game play experience.”
‘Ride
to Hell’ – This brand new multi-platform
game has been in development for over a year and is
due for a worldwide release simultaneously on next gen
consoles and PC in the 2nd Quarter of 2009.
