Ubi Soft and Kalisto announce worldwide publishing agreement for Nightmare Creatures 3

Sequel to 2 million selling Nightmare Creatures 1 & 2 set for release on consoles in 2003

5 February 2002 - Developed by Kalisto Entertainment, Nightmare Creatures 3, Angel of Darkness (working title) is the sequel to the 1998 hit game Nightmare Creatures 1 and the 2000 game Nightmare Creatures 2, which sold in excess of 2 million units worldwide combined on Sony PlayStation®, Nintendo® 64, Sega Dreamcast and PC platforms. Nightmare Creatures 3 for the new generation of video game consoles will hit store shelves in the second quarter of 2003.

"With this new opus of the Nightmare Creatures blockbuster series we've found a unique way to enter the gothik action adventure genre. We believe this agreement can seal the start of a long and profitable partnership," said Yves Guillemot, President and CEO of Ubi Soft Entertainment.

"We are thrilled to enter into this agreement with leading worldwide publisher Ubi Soft. Nightmare Creatures 3 is one of our most important original projects. We are excited that after all our investment in 2000 and 2001, Ubi Soft feels the potential is here to create a top selling game." said Nicolas Gaume, CEO of Kalisto Entertainment.

With its action-packed gameplay backed up by a fascinating story, Nightmare Creatures 3, Angel of Darkness carries forth the Nightmare Creatures series into the realm of gothic horror fantasy.

Nightmare Creatures is back, this time in 19th century central Europe where you play the role of a new agile heroine who sets out to solve a mysterious event. During the daytime you will explore Prague as the story unfolds. When night falls, the heroine and her accompanying Raven merge and transform into a formidable fighting beast, ready to defeat the very much alive and kicking Adam Crowley, the ultimate boss, in the final combat.

With a life-like world, 3 different heroine real-time transformations, very troubling weather conditions and its exceptional special effects, the game draws on every last bit of power your preferred console has to offer. The use of suspense and tension rather than an over gore atmosphere offers the sophisticated gaming experience horror fans and gamers have always craved for.
