VU Games To Publish Eragon

Vivendi Universal (VU) (the Hulk, 50 Cent Bulletproof, F.E.A.R etc.) has snagged the rights to the up-coming fantasy flick Eragon (not to be confused with Viggo Mortensen’s character from the LOTR); which basically means they can give it the videogame treatment. Eragon the movie will be based on the book of the same name and will be based on the magical times a boy shares with his magical dragon (and by dragon I mean the flying kind). The game will be released by the 12th of December 2006 to coincide with the movie’s theatrical release and will be available for the PC, the Xbox, the PS2 and handhelds.

“Eragon will let gamers battle with a combo and magic-based combat system, complete with finishing moves, grapples, blocks and counters. The game will also have dragon summoning, actual dragon flight, and dragon dogfights.”

Sounds like fun… if you’re ten years old.

Nash, as he prefers being called, woke up to the wonders of gaming rather late but don't bring that up around him. It's a touchy subject. A self confessed Battlefield veteran, Nash spent a good part of 2010 on the Steam Battlefield - with Bad Company (see what we did there?). He has a zero tolerance policy towards RTS games but is currently showing an interest by picking up and moving people - who he refers to as units - in the office. Thank God he's not that enthusiastic about Angry Birds or we'd be seeing women flying all over the place. Bali... Bali, put the receptionist down now. see more
