This game will follow the story of the blockbuster motion picture trilogy
The Matrix, The Matrix Reloaded and The Matrix Revolutions and for the
first time allow gamers to play as Neo and become "the One". Once again
blurring the lines between Hollywood and interactive entertainment,
it will feature the likenesses of all of the films' key actors -- including
Keanu Reeves (Neo), Laurence Fishburne (Morpheus), Carrie-Ann Moss (Trinity),
Hugo Weaving (Agent Smith) and Jada Pinkett-Smith (Niobe). As Neo, the
choices the player makes to resolve each scenario and the resulting
consequences may have a different result than the original films. Alternative
scenarios filled with new characters, content and storylines have all
been written and planned by the Wachowski Brothers to expand the Matrix
universe and overall gaming experience. Gamers will assume the role
of Neo from when, as Thomas Anderson, he gets the cell phone in the
package from Morpheus, to the flying street battle in the rain against
Agent Smith. To truly immerse the gamer in the Matrix universe, the
game will feature a Director's Cut of the original movie footage from
all three films and The Animatrix as cinematic sequences to progress
the story told from Neo's perspective. The player will use martial arts,
medieval weapons and guns (lots of guns) to take on a variety of enemies,
such as heavily armed SWAT officers; Agents of the Matrix, including
Agent Smith; and Exiles in the employ of the Merovingian. To help prepare
for these battles, there are several training levels which Neo must
complete. The game will have enhanced "Bullet Time" special effects
from the films and allow gamers to dodge bullets, jump off walls and
defy gravity and logic to recreate its most memorable scenes. |
