Activision Announces Game Based
on DreamWorks’ How to Train Your Dragon
Activision has teamed with
DreamWorks Animation to bring you an all-new adventure game based on the
upcoming How to Train Your Dragon movie. The game shares the name with the movie
and allows players to create their very own dragons and train them for battle.
The game ships next month for PS3, Xbox 360, Wii and DS.
Based on the upcoming film from
DreamWorks Animation, the How to Train Your Dragon video game launches gamers
into a third-person action-adventure as a Viking hero where they must embark
upon an epic quest to become the ultimate dragon trainer. Gamers can play as
characters “Hiccup” or Astrid” on the vast Island of Berk, which features
expanded locales from the film including Vikings’ Village, Wild Zone, Training
Zone and Fight Arena. In this truly larger-than-life adventure, players will
train dragons, explore environments and battle in prestigious dragon tournaments
as they battle for Viking victory. Plus, gamers can become the Dragon hero of
their living room as they square-off with friends and family in endless
head-to-head multi-player combat!
