Atari and Shiny Entertaiment have just announced a second collaboration to produce a new title set in the ever-confusing Matrix universe. The Matrix: Path of Neo is set for release on the Xbox, PlayStaion 2 and PC at the end of this year, and will see players once again delving into the rabbit hole - but this time around we will get to play as Neo.
Set in the Matrix universe, The Matrix: Path of Neo will enable players to actually play as the central character, and relive his most important and memorable scenarios from the complete film trilogy. Throughout the game, the path the player takes to resolve each scenario and the resulting consequences will be scripted and directed by the Wachowski Brothers. The likenesses of all of the films' key actors - including Keanu Reeves (Neo), Laurence Fishburne (Morpheus), Carrie-Ann Moss (Trinity), and Hugo Weaving (Agent Smith) - will all be featured in the game, which will also include footage from all three feature films, as well as The Animatrix shorts.
"We couldn't be more thrilled to be embarking on a new Matrix project,"
said Jim Caparro, President and Chief Executive Officer of Atari.
"The Wachowski Brothers have created a universe that is uniquely deep and rich, with virtually limitless creative possibilities, and the interactive space is the ideal world in which to explore them. With The Matrix: Path of Neo, the Wachowski Brothers will be giving their legions of fans the best of everything: the first chance to personally relive Neo's journey, and the chance to experience new adventures they cannot yet even imagine."
"I'm very happy to continue my collaboration with Larry and Andy on all things Matrix and beyond,"
said Joel Silver, producer of the Matrix film trilogy.
"Enter The Matrix added another exciting chapter to the legend. I'm thrilled that we are further expanding and exploring the vast Matrix universe through The Matrix: Path of Neo."
More on that rabbit hole soon.
