Van Helsing Announcement

PS2, Xbox

Gamebiz has another movie tie in to report. This time from Vivendi Universal Games. In a recent announcement VU announced it will be releasing a game on Xbox and PS2, based on the upcoming movie Van Helsing.

Van Helsing, the new epic action-adventure film from writer-director Stephen Sommers, (The Mummy, The Mummy Returns) draws inspiration from the studio's classic horror properties and introduces Van Helsing, Bram Stoker's fabled monster hunter, who is summoned to a distant Eastern European land on a quest to vanquish evil.

Van Helsing, the third-person action game, transports players back to the macabre world of 19th century Transylvania – home to the legendary Dracula, Wolf Man and the Frankenstein Monster. As the renowned monster hunter Van Helsing, players must hunt down and destroy the evil that inhabits these ancient lands before darkness engulfs the world.

Should be interesting, I just hope it does not end up being rushed to satisfy, release of other merchandise. Past movie tie in games, have always let fans down, hopefully they can surprise me with a quality product. We shall wait and see though!
