Other Ocean Interactive has announced that they are bringing The War of the Worlds to the Xbox LIVE Arcade and PlayStation Network this summer. The game puts players into the shoes of a human survivor trying to escape the chaos of the alien invasion in 1950’s London.
“As a developer, we are extremely fortunate to have access to this beloved franchise,” said Mike Mika, Head of Development with Other Ocean Interactive. “The team and I are huge fans of the original rotoscoped cinematic platformers of early PC gaming. This is a dream project for everyone on the team. Having the ability to approach the game in a completely retro way and pay homage to one of our favorite periods in gaming is more than we could ask for.”
