Empire Interactive to release Bad Boys II

Empire Interactive has announced that it has secured the rights to publish games based on the upcoming film Bad Boys II, featuring Martin Lawrence and Will Smith. The first game based on the agreement is expected to hit store shelves around the same time as the Q4 2003 release of the Bad Boys II DVD. "It is very exciting for the group to have signed such a significant property," said Ian Higgins, CEO of Empire Interactive. "The movie is one of the biggest to come out of Hollywood this year and crosses over perfectly with our core gamer demographic. Empire is looking forward to making this a hit franchise for a number of years to come." No other details have been revealed about the game.

We'll post more information when it becomes available.
