The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian for the Sony PlayStation 3, Microsoft Xbox 360, the Nintendo Wii, the Nintendo DS, and the PC by Disney Interactive Entertainment and Traveller's Tales is due out early in summer of 2008. With the launch approaching, new details and screenshots have been made public. See the full article for more details.

 

Our last update (and the first) on Disney Interactive's The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian was back in mid-July, after the publishers released a pair of videos and a few screenshots to admire. The video game adaptation of the second feature of C.S. Lewis' fantasy series would be served to gamers on almost every platform available.

The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian will see the return of the Pevensie siblings, in an effort to restore the throne of Narnia to young Prince Caspian. Features of the game will include the ability to play 20 characters in total, including all four Pevensies, Prince Caspian, and a minotaur.

Online and offline multiplayer was also mentioned, with an instant join, instant leave two-player gameplay experience. It was reported that Disney Interactive will include two exclusive scenes recorded by Walt Disney Pictures to the game. Expect all these to come to light when The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian hits your Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii, PSP, DS, PS2, and Windows PC next year. For the time being, give the few stills provided here a glance or two.

   

 

The Chronicles of Narnia was a series of really good books, but for added entertainment value, they made an excellent movie out of it. What happens when you take an excellent book/movie and turn it into a video game? Well, the stuff of adventures for one thing. More importantly, it's exactly what's happening to Prince Caspian and the Pevensie family as they embark upon a new adventure within the lands of Narnia in The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian from Traveller's Tales and Disney Interactive Studios.

As the story for the video game version goes, Prince Caspian finds himself face-to-face with the Pevensie children, nearly 1300 years after their original adventures in Narnia. Together, Caspian and the Pevensies have to work together to fight the forces of the evil tyrant Miraz, who has prevented Prince Caspian from rightfully ruling over the lands of Narnia.

For this inaugural post, we've compiled five screenshots of the game, as well as two different videos from GameTrailers. The first one is a trailer showing off some of the game's assets. The second one is a quick developer walkthrough, where we get to preview the many features that'll be making an appearance in the game.
