Electronic Arts rolls out The Godfather game
NEW YORK (Reuters) – Electronic Arts Inc. on Tuesday said its highly anticipated, but much delayed, video game based on the popular “Godfather” films is now in U.S. stores, and will debut in Europe on March 24.
The company saw its stock rise by 3.95 percent in early market trading to $54.75.
Last July it pushed back the launch of “The Godfather The Game,” sending its shares lower, when it said the game would not make the crucial Christmas retail delivery window.
The game, created via a licensing relationship with Viacom Inc. affiliates Paramount Pictures and Viacom Consumer Products, is available for Sony Corp.’s. PlayStation 2, Microsoft Corp.’s. Xbox and also for personal computers. It is based on the Mario Puzo book and Paramount Pictures movie and features some of the voices of the original actors.
The Godfather game was developed by EA Redwood Shores which created other game franchises including Lord of the Rings and Tiger Woods PGA Tour.
