Linkin Park is about to release a game for iPhone, iTouch and iPad.
‘Linkin Park 8-Bit Rebellion’ began life a year ago when the band partnered with game developer Artificial Life Inc for the project."The collaborative process with Artificial Life was exceptional," says Linkin Park vocalist Mike Shinoda, who worked with the game company to design the characters and score the game. "They were able to turn my sketches and our creative ideas into a living, breathing world that we think gamers will thoroughly enjoy. This game is not just made for Linkin Park fans ? anyone will be able to play and enjoy 8-Bit Rebellion.' My bandmates and I grew up playing games like 'Metroid,' 'Donkey Kong,' 'Zelda,' 'Space Invaders,' 'Mega Man' and 'Rygar.' We wanted this game to have the feel of a vintage game, and a big part of it was the music."
The game is a full-on adventure game with players having to free Linkin Park from the clutches of evil.
It also features a Linkin Park greatest hits soundtrack with "New Divide," "One Step Closer," "In The End," "Crawling," "QWERTY," "Hands Held High," "Faint," and "No More Sorrow."
The game will be available soon.
Linkin Park fans can also expect a new album from the band later this year.
