Glu Releases Speed Racer

April 29th, 2008 by Arjan Olsder Posted in New Releases | 2 Comments »

GluGlu has released Speed Racer, a mobile racing game based on the movie from Warner Bros. The movie is highly anticipated as it’s directed by the directors of The Matrix.

"The team at Glu has done a remarkable job of delivering all the fast action of SPEED RACER onto the mobile phone," said Anthony Campagna, director of wireless sales development, Warner Bros. Digital Distribution. "This game provides hours of entertainment and will make a great companion piece for anyone passionate about SPEED RACER."

Speed Racer allows players to become the ultimate Grand Prix champion while driving the Mach 6. By using "Car-Fu" (an artful driving skill and sense of oneness with the vehicle) to drift, slide, jump, and defensively drive, players will navigate extreme tracks against fierce competitors and obstacles. The game includes unique racing courses with slaloms and banks providing a brand-new type of racing experience.

The game also features advanced graphics and 3D screens. These graphics fully immerse players into the Speed Racer experience while also reflecting the upcoming movie’s high-definition video camerawork.

"We’re really proud of the job our studio has done to develop a white-knuckle racing game on par with the level of quality that the Wachowski brothers expect," said Jill Braff, senior vice president, global publishing, Glu. "We’re excited to be able to put this experience in the hands of consumers in anticipation of the film’s debut."
