Namco Bandai have announced that they are to publish Digital Extremes’ Star Trek game set between the two movies in 2013.
The game was first revealed at E3 last year, but things have been quite silent since then. Now Paramount have announced that they have come to a deal with Namco Bandai to publish the game for all major home consoles and PC. It will be released in 2013 before the new Star Trek film hits theaters.
“Star Trek continues to be one of the most beloved entertainment properties around the world, and NAMCO BANDAI Games Europe is extremely excited to be teaming up with Paramount Pictures to create the definitive Star Trek interactive experience,” said Olivier Comte, SVP of marketing, Sales and Publishing for NAMCO BANDAI Partners S.A.S.
“Working with Paramount Pictures and Digital Extremes reinforces NAMCO BANDAI Games’ commitment of expanding its portfolio to include Triple ‘A’ Western developed games in addition to its popular and well-respected Japanese Franchises. Digital Extremes’ attention to detail, and the collaboration with Paramount Pictures and the team at Bad Robot Interactive will create an authenticity that is sure to thrill Star Trek fans and gamers alike.”
The rest of the press release pretty much covers what we already knew about the story and who’s working on it.
