MONSTER LABEidos Interactive, one of
the world's leading publishers and developers of entertainment software,
today confirms MONSTER LAB, an eccentric action and role playing game (RPG)
for Wii(TM) and Nintendo DS(TM)
MONSTER LAB is set in an eerie, supernatural world where the evil Baron
Mharti rules the region with a cruel hand. Gamers take on the role of an
apprentice scientist who must perform a vast array of intricate experiments
to create creepy monsters from over 150 monster parts. From mechanical to
biological to alchemical laboratories, players take control of their
monstrous creations and explore the land, searching for ingredients to make
stronger monster parts, hunting out and defeating enemy monsters,
discovering quests to embark upon or simply competing in the numerous
mini-games available.
"Striking graphics combined with an intriguing storyline and in-depth
customization allow for over 150 million monster combinations. This
combined with robust multiplayer combat will make Monster Lab a must have
for your Wii(TM) library." said Associate Marketing Manager, Diane Eng,
Eidos.
MONSTER LAB gives players the ability to challenge and compete with
friends in ferocious multiplayer combat and collect monster parts and
recipes in an obsessive pursuit of knowledge and power.
The ultimate goal is to vanquish the evil Baron Mharti and liberate the
villagers through mastering experiments, creating a powerful army of
monsters and conquering all of the vast environments. Only then will the
player rise through the ranks and become a Mad Scientist worthy of
defeating the Baron!
Developed by Backbone Vancouver, MONSTER LAB is set for release on
Wii(TM) and Nintendo DS(TM) in 2008.
