Capcom and Nickelodeon today announced that they are working together to create a new Neopets title. Called Neopets Puzzle Adventure, this game will have 150 different quests across vast Neopian lands. Players will also be able to unlock codes that will allow players to unlock items in the virtual world on neopets.com.
“As part of Neopets’ strategy to extend the property into a multiplatform brand, we are continuously giving our audiences new ways to play on and off of the site,” said Kyra Reppen, Senior vice president and general manager for Neopets. “Our partnership with Capcom provides a new form of game play for Neopets that is relevant to the platforms our audience is using, and that complements the game play on the site.”
“Capcom is working to expand the breadth of our catalog to gamers of all ages in North America and Neopets is a perfect brand for us to bring to casual and family gamers,” said Germaine Gioia, senior vice president, licensing for Capcom Entertainment. “Combining Capcom’s experience, the rich world of Neopets, and Infinite Interactive’s skills in the puzzle/adventure genre makes a perfect match.”
Neopets Puzzle Adventure will release on PC, DS and Wii in late 2008
