New International Development Studio With Headquarters in Germany Plans
Violence-Free Triple-A Gaming Title for Next Gen Consoles
HAMBURG, Germany, Aug. 9 /PRNewswire/ Emerging Entertainment is the latest brand from CNT Media GmbH, a company thats made a name for itself over the last ten years for its success on the digital image processing and computer animation markets. Emerging Entertainment develops high quality entertainment software for the new generation of gaming consoles (Xbox 360, PS3, Nintendo Wii), mainly focusing on games which abstain from any form of visual violence.
Everybody is talking about the opportunities the new console generation has to offer but their potential in the family entertainment software market wont be exhausted. Our project breaks down the barriers between game, film and live-event, says Cornel Hillmann, CEO of Emerging Entertainment.
We are showing that you can develop exciting entertainment software without including violence, emphasises US-based Cosima Preuss-Kuehne, main associate of CNT Media GmbH. Games for all ages should win us over with subtle characters and a good sense of humor, not with brutality - just like big family movies.
Work on the next generation title has already started. A Hamburg Team of more than a dozen experienced game developers led by CEO Cornel Hillmann is working closely with Blur Studios, Los Angeles, Sanuk Software, Bangkok and Nextgen Studios, Singapore. The new Singapore studio shows Emerging Entertainments international claim - it is opening in August 2006.
Emerging Entertainments projects are based on the Gamebryo engine, which is the technology behind successful titles like The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion for the Xbox 360.
The title will be released in May 2008. Further details are disclosed on Games Convention 2006. Find Emerging Entertainment in hall 2, booth H75.
