Acclaim signs 100 Bullets

Acclaim Entertainment has today announced that it has signed an exclusive agreement with DC Comics for the interactive publishing rights to 100 Bullets. Created by Brian Azzarello and Eduardo Risso, the award-winning comic book series chronicles the exploits of a mysterious figure known only as Agent Graves who offers his "clients" an attaché case containing the proof, the gun, and the carte blanche immunity to exact revenge on a person who's done them an irrevocable wrong.

"The 100 Bullets universe possesses all the key elements that comprise what consumers are looking for in today's games--great characters, deep storytelling, and edge-of-your-seat action," said Marc Metis, senior vice president of brand management for Acclaim. "In keeping with its comic book origin, the game will challenge players to think before they shoot and allow them to explore the moral implications of their actions."

Specific gameplay details and platforms for the 100 Bullets game have not been announced at this time. We'll bring you more information on the game, which is scheduled for release sometime next year, as soon as it becomes available.
