FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE FOX INTERACTIVE ANNOUNCES THE SHIPMENT OF CROC 2 FOR THE PC
LOS ANGELES (March 7, 2000) – FOX Interactive announced today that it shipped CROC 2 for the PC to retail stores nationwide. CROC 2 features Fox Interactive’s shared play technology OmniPlay(tm) and is available at an estimated street price of $24.98.
The sequel to Fox’s original Croc game, Croc 2 features the cute, green crocodile hero embarking on a journey to find his long lost parents. A colorful adventure filled with challenges, Croc navigates through more than 40 new levels and faces a showdown with his archenemy Baron Dante. Additionally, Croc has new moves such as the Boost Triple Jump, Power Flip and Croccy Paddle to help him through his adventure and defeat mischievous monsters. Croc 2 features exciting new environments and action-filled game play including racing a mine cart, flying a hang glider and riding a speedboat.
OmniPlay(tm) CROC 2 features Fox Interactive’s innovative OmniPlay technology. OmniPlay is a menu option that enables players to share control of Croc’s different abilities. The new “shared play” feature allows players to work cooperatively to navigate Croc through his adventures. Not to be confused with multiplayer gaming, OmniPlay makes it possible for parents and adults to teach younger players how to control the game characters or vehicles.
CROC 2 was developed by UK-based Argonaut Studios and is available with an “E – Everyone” ESRB rating. The PlayStation game is also available in stores now.
