GAMEBRIDGE ANNOUNCES EARLY 2010 RELEASES AT MCM

Gamebridge Announce Their Presence At The London MCM Expo And Showcases Incredible 2010 Line-up With Rising Star Games.

14th September, 2009 – Fledgling publisher Gamebridge has grown from strength to strength since its inception last year and is now ready to showcase its early 2010 line-up. Using the London MCM Expo as a launch pad for the announcements, Papermates and Way of The Samurai 3 will arrive in Europe early next year, with marketing and sales coordinated by Rising Star Games.

Papermates™ is to be released on the Nintendo DS™ and is DSi™ compatible. With a wide range of mini-games, trading and character customisation, including taking photos, Papermates has huge potential. The Way of The Samurai series is one of the finest culturally accurate games revolving around feudal Japan, set in the warring states period, with the player taking the role of a wandering warrior arriving in a small province. In Way of The Samurai 3 players have direct involvement in the plot by choosing dialogues and actions in the game. A new outstanding feature in the game is that players can draw their weapon anytime during cutscenes; this breathes new life into the way stories unfold also the next-gen treatment of this already established title will be sure to please fans of the series.


“We are elated to be working with Gamebridge on these great titles next year. Happy Party with Hello Kitty and Friends, Papermates and Way of the Samurai 3 all have that X-factor amongst the other great games present at the show this year” commented Tyrone Walcott, of Rising Star Games. “Following the phenomenal success Rising Star Games experienced at the last Expo in May, we are confident that Gamebridge will have a great show accompanied with Hello Kitty who also is making an exclusive personal appearance at the London event days before her official 35th birthday party in the capital.”
