Playlogic Entertainment, Inc. (Nasdaq OTC: PLGC.OB), an independent worldwide publisher of entertainment software, and Twentieth Century Fox Licensing & Merchandising (Fox Licensing) announced today that Aliens in the Attic, the family friendly, action–adventure video game based on the Twentieth Century Fox movie, will be available in retail stores nationwide on July 28 — three days in advance of the film's nationwide release. The new game will be available for the Wii system, Nintendo DS, PlayStation 2 computer entertainment system and Windows PC.

The Aliens in the Attic video game will follow the storyline of the adventure-comedy film about a group of kids on a family vacation who must stave off an attack by knee-high alien invaders with world-conquering ambitions; all while trying to keep their parents from finding out! The video game will offer players two different gameplay perspectives depending upon which video game platform players choose.

"Aliens in the Attic provides endless hours of fun for the whole family," said Rogier Smit, executive vice president for Playlogic. "Fox has created a movie full of heart-pumping action, thrills, comedy and good old fashion entertainment and we've translated those features right into the gameplay."

Aliens in the Attic for DS puts players in the shoes of the movie's main characters; Tom, Hannah and their cousin Jake. Players will use the children's abilities – Hanna's jump skill, Tom's engineering skills and Jake's weapon knowledge – to rid the planet, and the upstairs, from the nasty invaders. This action packed version of the game features multiple levels within each beautifully designed gameplay area and is loaded with boss fights, tons of puzzle elements and a variety of weapons to choose from including grenades and a customizable gun.

Aliens in the Attic for Wii, PS2 and PC gives players a whole new way to experience the storyline by allowing them to assume the identity of one of four different alien explorers whose mission it is to take over the summer home, and possibly the world! This version of the game features 15 exciting levels that are carried out in four different locations. Plus, players can switch between characters on the fly for fast-paced action!

"Aliens in the Attic is a great summer family film and provides a storyline that is perfect for gaming," said Gary Rosenfeld, Senior Vice President, New Media for Fox Licensing. "Playlogic has created a game that will extend the film experience for gamers of all ages."

Aliens in the Attic the movie, co-scripted by one of the writers of Madagascar and the Academy Award®-winning Wallace and Gromit: The Curse of the Were Rabbits, is an adventure/comedy about kids on a family vacation who must fight off an attack by knee-high alien invaders with world-destroying ambitions—while the youngsters' parents remain clueless about the battle.
