Ubisoft has announced that they will be creating a video game based on the popular TV series Lost.
“We are delighted to work with Bryan Burk, one of the biggest producers in Holly wood and with Touchstone Television,” commented Yves Guillemot, CEO at Ubisoft. “That they have chosen us for the adaptation of the cult series Lost is the best homage that a producer can make to the creativity of Ubisoft.”
This deal is another example of how truly powerful the Lost brand is,” stated Bruce Gersh, Senior Vice President of Business Development at ABC Entertainment and Touchstone Television. “We are excited to work together with Ubisoft to create a gaming experience that will allow fans to further immerse themselves into the mysteries and intrigues of the series.”
“The creative appeal of Lost transcends borders with its character driven stories and addictive mysterious mythology,” explained Julia Franz, Executive Vice President for Touchstone Television. “It’s not enough for fans worldwide to just watch Lost, the game is a wonderful opportunity to organically extend this creative phenomenon into an interactive consumer experience.”
“Many of us on Lost have been hardcore gamers for years and the chance to work with Ubisoft, a company behind some of our favorite titles, has excited us to no end,” enthused Bryan Burk. “With the ability to tell new interactive stories within the Lost universe, we’re giddy to be developing a game that, once completed, will be as engaging and fun to play as it is to create.”
The game will be released on PC and home and portable consoles in 2007.
