Eidos Interactive announced October 24 as the release date for the upcoming Reservoir Dogs for the PS2, PC and the Xbox. The game follows the 1992 film where players can experience all five characters who carry out a diamond heist. Included with the game will be the full and original soundtrack from the film.
Kevin Gill, U.S. Marketing Manager for Eidos, exclaimed confidence the game will carry on the film’s legacy, "Eidos is proud to bring one of the most esteemed and influential films of all time to the video game consoles and PC. Gaming and movie fans alike will have the unprecedented opportunity to play through the events of the movie as well as experiencing parts of the movie that happened off screen but are essential to the main plot."
"Movie-based video games centered on compelling content and solid gameplay have a proven history of having a highly successful run at retail," said Eidos VP Bob Lindsey. "With the film’s extremely loyal fan base and the concurrent release of Reservoir Dogs 15th Anniversary Edition DVD, the Reservoir Dogs video game deserves a home on the crime-film fan’s shelf."
Volatile Games (Possession) handled the game’s development. The game also features actor Michael Madsen providing his voice and likeness for the game. Also on the 24, the 15th Anniversary Edition DVD of the film will be released, which includes never-before-seen extra features and collectible packaging.
