Galleon to hit shelves in May 2004

Xbox

Sydney, 18th December 2003 – Atari, Australia’s premier source of interactive software, proudly announces “Galleon” for Xbox, published by Sci and releasing in May 2004.

From the creator of Lara Croft™ and lead designer of the original Tomb Raider™ game comes an epic tale of action, adventure, romance, evil and mystery. SCi Games Ltd is proud to announce the signing of Galleon on Microsoft Xbox™.

Step into the shoes of the swashbuckling Captain Rhama Sabrier, and journey on an epic quest through the islands of Akbah to unlock the mystery of an enchanted ship, which could hold the key to the most powerful weapon in the universe.

As Galleon’s incredible story unfolds, Rhama must rely on more than his wits to survive, fending off fiendish adversaries with swords, pistols and Qing-Gong, an ancient martial art which allows Rhama to scale seemingly impenetrable walls, jump enormous caverns and swim to incredible depths.

Inspired by a mix of Sinbad, Errol Flynn, Kung Fu films and Disney, Galleon creator Toby Gard said: “After creating Lara Croft and having been the lead designer of the original Tomb Raider, I wanted to give birth to a completely new type of hero and I came up with Captain Rhama. I am delighted that gamers will soon be able to savour Galleon.”

Galleon will be released in May 2004.
