New Disney Universe Wii Trailer on Nintendo gaming news, videos and discussion

Disney Interactive Studios is bringing yet another magical world to the upcoming video game, Disney Universe, with the introduction of an all-new environment from the beloved animated classic Disney’s The Lion King. Disney Universe is the first video game that brings together characters and worlds inspired by both animated and live action films from Disney’s Walt Disney Animation Studios, Pixar Animation Studios, and Walt Disney Pictures. In the The Lion King world, players will journey to the African savanna by suiting up as iconic characters from the award-winning movie, where they will explore Pride Rock and the Elephant Graveyard.

’The Lion King’ was an animated masterpiece, and certainly one of Disney’s most treasured films. Fans of all ages will surely enjoy the exploration and adventures that await them in this Disney Universe environment, where they will have a chance to revisit some of their favourite scenes and suit up as characters from the movie.
- Adam Sussman, Senior Vice President of Publishing, Disney Interactive Media Group.

Players can suit up as characters from Disney’s The Lion King, including Simba and one of Simba’s best friends, Pumbaa the warthog, as they navigate their way through the Pride Lands and the Elephant Graveyard. The new level also introduces seeds and water bombs to grow plants that can be used as platforms, and players can ride duck vehicles through lava and engage in a final, stormy battle with the evil Scar at Pride Rock.

The new Lion King environment is the latest addition to the roster of other notable Disney properties showcased in Disney Universe, including Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland, and Disney Pixar’s Monsters, Inc. and WALL E.

Disney Universe will be available on 28th October in the UK for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii and Windows PC/MAC.
