Company: Disney Interactive
Date: 01 Mar 2007
BURBANK, Calif. - (February 28, 2007) - The mesmerizing visuals, memorable audio tracks and hypnotic gameplay of the Lumines franchise have always made the games unique. With Lumines Plus, the popular Lumines gameplay makes its debut on the PlayStation(R)2 computer entertainment system.
Lumines Plus includes all the features of the original Lumines game for the PSP(R) (PlayStation(R)Portable) system combined with many features from the game's recently released PSP system sequel, Lumines II. As a hybrid of both previous handheld Lumines games, Lumines Plus provides the opportunity for gamers to enjoy elements of both games on their TV.
"With the immense global fan base for the PlayStation 2, Lumines Plus is the perfect opportunity for existing Lumines fans and newcomers to experience the addictive puzzle gameplay on their big screen TVs," said Craig Relyea, vice president of marketing, Disney Interactive Studios. "With the creativity and passion of those who play Lumines games, we anticipate many living rooms filled with grudge matches to determine Lumines Plus supremacy."
Lumines Plus challenges players to match and clear solid-color rectangles by rotating and arranging falling two-color squares, all set to memorable music. With 30 skins (themed backgrounds including unique music tracks) and 100 puzzles, the single player experience of Lumines Plus is deep and engaging. A furious two-player multiplayer mode enables friends to go head-to-head on the same screen for ultimate bragging rights.
Available now for the suggested price of $19.99, Lumines Plus is published by Disney Interactive Studios and developed by Q ENTERTAINMENT, the creators of Lumines, Lumines II and Meteos. The game is rated E for Everyone by the Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB).
