THQ have today announced that they are developing a further game to add to Microsoft's growing list of titles for controller-free motion peripheral, Kinect.
Currently in development by Blitz Game Studios, 'Fantastic Pets' will provide players with a "highly interactive fantasy experience that erases the line between the virtual and real worlds," and is described as being an augmented reality game that places players on-screen where their movements and voice commands will allow them to play alongside a pet of their own creation.
Players will be able to choose between a Dog, Cat, Horse or Lizard, that will then be able to be morphed into creatures such as unicorns or dragons. Voice recognition will provide the opportunity to command pets through a series of mini-games and Talent Shows, as you pursue your dream of becoming a professional Pet Trainer.
"Fantastic Pets offers an incredibly high level of interactivity, creativity and originality," said Martin Good, Executive Vice President, THQ Kids, Family, Casual Games, and Global Online Services. "As you discover your pet's personality and become enmeshed within the world, Fantastic Pets becomes more like a personalized adventure and less like a game."
Fantastic Pets is due to release in March 2011.
