San Diego, Calif.-March 2nd, 2010 -Human
Soft today announced it is developing HardGrip, the first extreme
rock climbing game for Wii™. Experience the thrill and
adrenaline of free soloing some of the most amazing rock walls in
the world with vertigo-inspiring graphics, a pulse-pounding
soundtrack, and dizzyingly realistic climbing action. HardGrip
supports the Wii MotionPlus™ for even greater precision and
authenticity. Compete against other climbers and hone your skills
to earn respect and become the top extreme climber.
HardGrip takes players on a tour of exotic and stunning locales
around the globe as they compete in open events or invitation-only
official races. With no harnesses or lifelines, players must solve
seemingly impossible challenges and conquer their fear to make it
to the top. Speed counts, but climbers who prove their ingenuity
and daring will earn more respect. As climbers progress, their
skills will have to become truly awesome to make the grade.
"Free climbing is all about style and creativity. Just making it
to the top fast isn't the point if you used an easy route." says
Gabor Kadas, CEO of Human Soft. "By incorporating the MotionPlus,
we can capture that competitive spirit in a game for the first
time."
In addition to the Wii product, Human Soft is working on
versions of HardGrip for other upcoming motion-based game
systems.
