The swashbuckling action of one of this summer’s highly-anticipated movies will be coming to life in an interactive PC action adventure game, Atari, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATAR) announced today. The Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas (TM)game will be based on the upcoming DreamWorks animated film of the same name and will combine the epic adventure of the movie with the latest innovation in PC technology from Intel to deliver a state-of-the-art game experience.

The Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas game will follow the storyline from the film and feature non-stop action, engaging gameplay and state-of-the-art visual effects.

To aid them in their quest, players can find cool power-ups like invisibility and the ability to summon a mini-army of skeletons to fight by their side. An intuitive control system enables players to perform exhilarating and acrobatic moves and use interactive environment features to defeat Sinbad’s enemies.
