LIGHTS, CAMERA, ACTION WILD EARTH STYLE

London, December 2006, Xplosiv announced today that they would be bringing the action safari game Wild Earth to PC in 2007. Wild Earth brings the untamed beauty of Africa into your home and unleashes its stunning sights and sounds at the click of a button. Explore the African wilderness by jeep, helicopter or on foot and capture some of Africa's finest wildlife species and environments on your camera, up close and personal.

Wild Earth gives you all the excitement of a real life safari from the comfort of your own living room. Live, breath and experience the full glory of the African Serengeti National Park. Players embark on various missions, each of which feature different photographic objectives, challenging the player to explore the lush 3D world and take the best photographs of animals and environmental features. Crawl through the undergrowth to capture a group of unsuspecting hippopotamus wallowing in the blazing midday sun. Jump in your 4x4 and track a herd of charging wildebeest across the vast plains or take to a helicopter and follow a pride of majestic lions.

Wild Earth offers a unique gaming experience that gives players increasingly difficult photographic missions in a detailed immersive environment. It's wide appeal and unique non-violent approach to game play will also appeal to a broad spectrum of non-traditional gaming audiences including women, young children and families who are looking for something to both educate and entertain.

"Wild Earth is a complete audio visual sensation that throws you right into the heart of Africa. If you like animals, you'll love this game, adult or child alike, and you are sure to learn something new about how they act in their own habitat," said James Spice, Xplosiv General Manager. He added, "We are very happy to be adding this unique product to our portfolio, and look forward to making further exciting announcements concerning the title in the coming month."
