LOS ANGELES, May 6 (UPI) -- Atari Wednesday confirmed its "Ghostbusters: The Video Game" will be released in North America next month.
The title will be made available on the Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, Windows PC, Playstation3 computer entertainment system, PlayStation2 computer entertainment system, Wii and Nintendo DS in North America June 16.
In an exclusive deal for Europe and the PAL publishing territory covering most of Asia, Africa, South America, Australia and New Zealand, the Playstation3 system and PlayStation2 system versions will launch June 19, published by Sony Computer Entertainment Europe.
The game's release coincides with the 25th anniversary of the original film's theatrical release and the launch of the Blu-Ray version of the classic first movie.
"'Ghostbusters: The Video Game' is one of our most significant worldwide releases this summer. Through Atari's North America publishing business and alongside our partners at Sony Computer Entertainment Europe, we have a strategically diversified approach to maximize a title of this magnitude on a global basis," Jim Wilson, Atari's chief executive officer, said in a statement.
The game is penned by original "Ghostbusters" writers and stars Harold Ramis and Dan Aykroyd. Ramis and Aykroyd, along with their fellow former "Ghostbusters" Bill Murray and Ernie Hudson, lend their voices and in-game likenesses to the original story, which is set two years after "Ghostbusters II" with New York once again overrun by ghosts and supernatural forces, Atari said.
