Dreamworks and some of the guys behind Madagascar and the Shrek series are this summer bringing Kung Fu Panda to the cinemas, and Activision will take care of the game. The movie features voices from Jack Black, Angelina Jolie, Jackie Chan and Seth Rogen plus many others, so hopefully they'll be all featured in the game. With a release on PS3, Xbox 360, Wii, Playstation 2, PC and the DS, the game is planned to hit the stores in May. More information and first images inside.

Commented on 2008-03-12 23:49:42you would thin that these amazing CG movies would actually produce decent looking games...

the problem with most movie-based games is still that they're made to make a quick buck. licenses aren't free and therefore there's less budget for the process of the development and in the end they are often lacking in the gameplay-department.

Anyways like I give 2 shits, I don't intend owning this game so it doesn't matter.
