Press Release
EDISON, NJ., April 5,
2012 - Majesco Entertainment Company (NASDAQ: COOL),
an innovative provider of video games for the mass market,
announced today that Double Dragon: Neon will be released
as a full-scale digital game on Xbox LIVE® Arcade for
the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from
Microsoft and PlayStation®Network this summer.
Majesco Entertainment has once again partnered with WayForward,
the award-winning team known for bringing franchise favorites
including BloodRayne: Betrayal back to audiences in
exciting new ways, and is thrilled for the fan-favorite developer to
put its signature spin on the father of all brawlers: Double
Dragon! Double Dragon: Neon isn't a shoddy sequel -
it's a face-melting 80's tour de force! Featuring bodacious
characters, gnarly combat, and a retro aesthetic, it's pure
over-the-top baditude... to the max!
"Double Dragon:
Neon is far from a standard retro remake," said Sean
Velasco, Director, WayForward. "It's WayForward's love letter
to the decade that spawned the franchise - the music, the style, and
culture of the 80's pulse through the nucleus of Double Dragon:
Neon. But don't think this is a simple graphical facelift; with our
innovative "mix tape" level up system and power-up
high-fives, we pushed it to the limit!"
Known for the
beautiful aesthetics and renowned gameplay of A Boy and his
Blob, Contra 4,Batman: The Brave and the Bold, and BloodRayne:
Betrayal, WayForward is applying its focused attention to detail
on Double Dragon: Neon. Taking place in a hyper-saturated
omniverse, players beat up baddies across earth and beyond against
the Black Dragon Clan's most nefarious leader yet-- the supernatural
scourge Skullmageddon. You could go it alone, but why wouldn't you
want to grab a buddy and take your game to the next level with
drop-in, drop-out online ‘Bro-Op'?!
Gamers will get a
tempting glimpse of this fresh take on Double Dragon this week at
PAX East where Double Dragon: Neon will be debuting a
playable demo.
Double Dragon: Neon on
Xbox LIVE Arcade for Xbox 360 and PlayStation®Network is expected
