505 Games Announces Top Gun Hard Lock
Los Angeles, CA June 7, in the year of our Lord 2011
International videogames publisher 505 Games today announced the
reimagining of a classic with Top Gun: Hard Lock. Based on
Paramount Pictures classic film, Top Gun: Hard Lock is set in
the present day with a brand new story line and new wave of
elite naval aviators fresh out of the Top Gun academy. In Top
Gun: Hard Lock gamers fly right back into the danger zone for a
jet propelled flight combat adventure with all the flair of a
modern day action blockbuster. The game is being developed by
Headstrong, a division of Kuju, and is set for release in Spring
2012 for Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system,
PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system, and PC.
In development under license from Paramount Digital
Entertainment, Top Gun: Hard Lock is aerial dog-fighting at jet
speeds and tailgating MiGs at Mach 2, while offering a unique
Hard lock mode where players perform air combat maneuvers that
deliver an explosively satisfying visual payoff that brings them
right into the action. Featuring the legendary F-14 Tomcat
fighter jet and a number of additional licensed planes and
weapons, and more than enough enemy MIGs to turn into smoldering
rubble, the game is carefully mixed with just enough nostalgic
references to remain true to its action movie roots.
Top Gun: Hard Lock pays tribute to the brands heritage but will
deliver the fierce action and intense aerial combat that todays
gamers expect. commented Ian Howe, Managing Director at 505
Games.
Top Gun: Hard Lock will be published in Spring 2012 by 505
Games.
