We have word from Edios Interactive that Widescreen Games is working on a game based on the Gregory Widen's Highlander franchise developed for PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.
"The interactive experience permits players to gain a completely different
perspective of the mythos, and experience the powers and advantages of
immortality through the eyes of a MacLeod," said Davis-Panzer
Productions co-founder Peter Davis
The video game is an extension of the popular Highlander movie and TV series that tells the tale of an Immortal swordsman, Owen MacLeod. Written by David Abramowitz, the Highlander TV series' writer and show runner, Highlander takes MacLeod on a journey across multiple lands from first century fiery Pompeii, to futuristic New York to discover his destiny and explore the powers of immortality.
Owen MacLeod, born in Gaul over 2000 years ago, was the son of a tribal chieftain whose village was crushed by the Roman Empire. MacLeod was sent in chains to the gladiatorial arena in Pompeii where he faced what he imagined to be a short life of battle. However, it was in the Coliseum where he was killed, only to miraculously recover and begin a new life as an Immortal. Fighting through centuries against other Immortals in legendary battles ending in death by beheading, MacLeod now faces a mysterious and almost all-powerful Immortal who is hunting him down in New York City. With his mentor, Methos, guiding him, MacLeod learns that the only way to destroy this ultimate nemesis, is to search out the three fragments of a mysterious stone that when pieced together, yields unlimited power to the Immortal who possesses it.
Moving through the centuries you have fought to survive against other Immortals in legendary battles where death comes only by beheading.
Now, a mysterious figure has unleashed a series of attacks on New York, intent on tracking down MacLeod. Owen soon learns that his only chance to defeat this mysterious figure, and thus save his own head, lies in reuniting the three fragments of a mysterious stone that, when whole, is reputed to bring unlimited power to the Immortal that possesses it. Sensing that his destiny is closely linked to this ancient artifact, MacLeod must sift through his memories, plunging him into three key periods of his past, and leading him inevitably toward his ultimate destiny: one final battle against his greatest enemy.
