a leading worldwide developer and publisher of video games, today announced that
Lost Planet: Extreme Condition COLONIES EDITION is in development for the Xbox
360 video game and entertainment system from Microsoft as well as a version for
Windows-based PCs that will support Games for Windows – LIVE. Scheduled for
Platinum Hits release this June in North America, Lost Planet COLONIES EDITION
extends the acclaimed Lost Planet experience by delivering fresh new content and
gameplay options, as well as online cross-platform play between both the Xbox
360 and Windows-based PCs using Xbox LIVE and Games for Windows - LIVE. Both
SKUs of the game will offer excellent value, with the Xbox 360 version achieving
Platinum Hits status. Lost Planet COLONIES EDITION is rated T for Teen by the
Entertainment Software Ratings Board (ESRB) and will be released on both Windows
PCs and Xbox 360 on May 27 for the Platinum Hits value price of $29.99.

Lost Planet COLONIES EDITION provides the same compelling single player
experience found in the original Lost Planet: Extreme Condition, with the
addition of three new modes. In Score Attack, all enemies have points assigned
to them and the score awarded will change depending on how they are defeated,
with skilled marksmen being rewarded. For those who thrive on a challenge, Trial
Battle Mode delivers, pitting players against all of the game’s bosses, one
after another. Players of both Score Attack and Trial Battle modes will be able
to compare their skills and compete for bragging rights via the online ranking
system. Finally things get a little crazy with Off Limit Mode which lets players
take on Lost Planet’s harsh environments and enemies with over-the-top,
super-charged weapons and a powered-up grappling hook. Fans of multiplayer
action will not be disappointed as Lost Planet COLONIES EDITION allows them to
enjoy a host of new maps, characters, weapons and gameplay modes. Players turn
poacher as they attempt to steal opponents’ alien Akrid eggs in a number of
individual and team play modes, while the addition of VS Annihilator Mode
assigns one robotic Vital Suit to each team, which must be defended at all cost.
Lost Planet COLONIES EDITION also includes the feature that Lost Planet fans
across the globe have been clamoring for – the ability to play as a gigantic
marauding Akrid. Revel in the chance to turn the tables on the Snow Pirates as
you assume the role of one of E.D.E.N. III’s indigenous creatures in Akrid
Hunting mode.
