Today Disney Interactive Studios announced that the upcoming game, Cars 2: The Video Game, will have 3D graphics exclusively on the Playstation 3.
From the start, players will be immersed in a 3D experience as Cars 2: The Video Game detects a connection to a 3D TV and automatically adjusts settings. Cars 2 fans will then experience 3D in every aspect of gameplay, including action-packed combat racing and all menu interfaces. In addition, the multiplayer functionality of the game will allow for four players to compete against each other in full 3D, utilizing a 4-way split screen.
“The advancement of 3D technology will allow us to immerse the player into the Cars 2 game environment in a whole new way,” said John Blackburn, vice president and general manager of Avalanche Software, developer of Cars 2. “The 3D effects will ratchet up gameplay in ways that will have fans’ hearts pounding when they embark on dangerous spy missions, while our innovative multiplayer with four simultaneous 3D ports will bring a whole new dimension to PS3™ gaming.”
Cars 2: The Video Game is of course based on the upcoming Disney-Pixar movie, Cars 2, and it features over 20 Cars and an expanding storyline. Though the 3D functionality is exclusive to the PS3, Cars 2: The Video Game will be available on all major game consoles on June 21st.
