Activision has told Eurogamer that Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings will be released for DS, PS2, PSP and Wii on 12th June.
The date follows the bizarre revelation that Han Solo will be a playable character in the game.
He'll be able to use his laser pistol, according to a StarWars.com trailer, but otherwise acts more-or-less the same as Indiana Jones: pouty one-liners, rugged good looks, stick insect girlfriends and so on and so forth.
We're not sure whether Han is the the secret co-op character LucasArts teased back at the game's unveiling in February, incidentally.
Of the SKUS, the Wii version provides the most interest, with motion-sensing whip and punching controls, and gesture-based escape sequences. There's multiplayer, too.
Head over to the Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings gamepage to find out more.

I hope the co-op character is Sean Connery. Not Henry Jones Snr; actually Sean Connery. From the 70s, with his porn tasche and chest wig. Wearing the nappy from Xanadu.

I actually read that title as 'Indiana Jones game to star Harrion Ford' which seemed to state the obivous.
Now I've read the article it just reminds me how amazing a proper Han Solo game would be. Imagine a first person shooter that allows you to be Solo. The scenarios and adventures being a gun for hire, a smuggler is unlimited. Added to that, a really cool ship, the Star Wars universe and it's myriad of worlds and aliens. I can't see how that wouldn't be popular. |

Shitty unlockable but, as long as the game plays half-decently, I'll be happy with more Indiana Jones. It's all about the story!

Fair point:) WinUAE is your friend by the way - amazing how the game's still a lot of fun despite its age. I could initially only play it on my C64 with 2 colours and slideshow speed and enviously drooled over my mate's Amiga version - ah the memories *sigh* /refrains from starting to shake fist and rant on about the good ol' times and lack of gameplay nowadays |

Most of us back then seemed to think that's exactly what it was, just a euphoria demo. However, I've noticed (as I'm sure many others have) that a lot of the locations in staff of kings seem to be the locations shown in that euphoria demo of two years ago. Of particular note is the cable car scenes minus the fighting on the roof, which is pretty much certain to be in there. |
