PRESS RELEASE
Birmingham, England – Tuesday, 27 February 2001
HEADFIRST ARE DEDICATED, INSEPARABLE, INVINCIBLE!!!
Headfirst Productions are proud to announce that they have just signed an
exclusive license to develop computer games based on the all-time classic
cartoon series, BATTLE OF THE PLANETS!
Fondly remembered by many as “the original” animé series, Battle Of The
Planets follows the adventures of five fearless young orphans who protect the
galaxy from alien invasion and the plans of the evil mastermind Zoltar.
The first game, initially planned for release during Q4 2002, will allow the
player to take control of the combined might of G-Force in an adrenaline-pumping
action game featuring cartoon shaded realtime graphics, single and
co-operative multiplayer gameplay, and even the Fiery Phoenix!
“Battle Of The Planets is a fantastic license to work with…” says Headfirst
Director Mike Woodroffe, “…and it also has the benefit of a massive pre-installed
audience around the world. Everybody remembers G-Force…we’ve
all been humming the theme music for weeks now!”
Jane Garner of Mollin Licensing, on behalf of Sandy Frank Film Syndication
Inc, is pleased that a Battle Of The Planets game is under development after
so long. “Battle is currently undergoing a renaissance due to the video and
impending DVD releases, with an enormous amount of interest being shown
in the series amongst the lifestyle and entertainment press. It is certainly one
of the best retro licenses around and I am really looking forward to seeing
Headfirst turn it into a great game.”
