THE GAME FACTORY announced today the signing of a worldwide publishing deal, which will see the company launch an exciting new action/adventure video game, LEGEND OF THE DRAGON for Nintendo DS and Sony PlayStation 2.

The game is based on the brand new TV series LEGEND OF THE DRAGON, which is to be launched in the spring of 2006 by BKN International AG, a global animation company engaged in the distribution and marketing of animated children's television programmes and the marketing of related consumer products (licensing and merchandising) in all forms. BKN has successfully negotiated distribution deals in the children's programming market in over 80 countries worldwide with major broadcasters including prestigious names such as Nickelodeon, BBC, Warner Brothers Home Entertainment, Super RTL and Cartoon Network.

The TV series has been created by Rick Ungar, who is credited with many global successes such as the immensely popular "X-Men: Evolution" and the classic "Spider-Man". Already placed with leading broadcasters worldwide, the 26 action packed episodes are currently in production, and are sure to be a success with young boys fascinated by the current trend of Japanese inspired animations and martial arts.

At the core LEGEND OF THE DRAGON is the battle to maintain the universal balance between good and evil, Yin and Yang. This beat-em-up adventure game takes place in China and is centred on the twins Ang and Ling whose sibling bond is tested when Ang is chosen to be the next Golden Dragon destined to defend the temple from the evil Zodiac Master. In her quest for redemption Ling is lured to join the Zodiac Master on his mission to destroy the 12 lost temples of the ancient Chinese Zodiacs and their Guardian Warriors. In the battle between darkness and light both heroes and villains have magic wristbands that can transform them into half man half beast with the likeness and skills of the zodiac creature they represent. The game combines thrilling fighting sequences with a compelling story line all wrapped up in outstanding animations. The game is scheduled for release on Nintendo DS and Sony Play Station 2 in Spring/Summer 2006.
