Summer Athletics will launch on Xbox 360, PS2, PC and Wii and will feature 25 disciplines from the Olympic games.
Featuring a character editor, lifelike 3D graphics, realistic athlete animations and what's described as a ‘life-like’ stadium atmosphere, the sports on offer include sprinting, hurdles, cycling, archery, javelin, hammer throwing, swimming and diving.
“We’re really excited about the release of Summer Athletics, especially as it is the first realistic summer sports simulation for the Nintendo Wii and will tie in with the major sporting events occurring this summer.” Jon Brooke, Head of UK Marketing for Eidos.
“It will provide hours of fun gaming for a wide audience and should really capture the mood of the summer.”
