New Green Lantern
Game
Green Lantern: Rise of the Manhunters
Release date: June 7th 2011
Inspired by the upcoming Warner Bros.
Pictures’ superhero feature film Green Lantern, Green Lantern:
Rise of the Manhunters soars onto game consoles this summer,
extending the theatrical experience of one of DC Entertainment’s
most popular superheroes. Players will use the most powerful
weapon in the universe, the Green Lantern Power Ring, to build
an array of weapons from green energy to defeat the Manhunters –
an evil android race bent on destroying the Green Lantern Corps.
Packed with intergalactic missions, alien androids and
out-of-this-world combat, Green Lantern: Rise of the Manhunters
is an action-adventure videogame that delivers the Green Lantern
experience right into the hands of gamers.
Here's the official description of the
game.
The Manhunters are an android race, originally created by
the Guardians of the Universe to serve as the first
interstellar police force. The Manhunters became more
obsessed with administering punishment than serving justice,
forcing the Guardians to dissolve their ranks. The few
Manhunters that survived fled into exile and the Guardians
founded a new elite police force called the Green Lantern
Corps and armed its members with specially crafted power
rings. Now the Manhunters are back and out for revenge,
readying their forces for a war against the Guardians and
the Green Lantern Corps. Faced with destruction, the Corps
is looking to you as the newest recruit, gifted but cocky
test pilot Hal Jordon, to protect peace and preserve
justice. Building on the anticipation of Warner Bros.'
feature film Green Lantern, in theaters June 17, 2011, Green
Lantern: Rise of the Manhunters includes the likeness and
voice talent of Ryan Reynolds as Hal Jordan, who is the star
of the upcoming motion picture.
