An exclusive Wii title just completed by Codemasters, will be shipping to stores April 15 in the US, April 18 in Europe.

In Emergency Mayhem, Crisis City is on the edge of collapse, and you must bring it back to normalcy by ridding the City of fires, bombs ... and monkeys. Saving the city requires the player to pilot fire trucks, ambulances and police cars through busy city streets to the destination announced through the Wii remote speaker by HQ. Each location will allow the player to partake in one of thirty mini-game challenges.

Along with a hectic single player experience, Emergency Mayhem offers a mini-game multiplayer mode.

CHAOS COMING TO CRISIS CITY AS

EMERGENCY MAYHEM™ FOR WII GOES GOLD

New Video Reveals Most Accident-Prone City of all Time in Meltdown!

UNIVERSAL CITY, Calif. - April 3, 2008 - Putting the urgency into

emergency, Codemasters® today announced that Emergency Mayhem™ has gone

gold and is set to ship to U.S. retail stores on April 15 with the

European/PAL launch on April 18. Coming exclusively to Wii™, catch the

chaos in the new gameplay video now available to view or download from

www.codemasters.com/emergency.

In Emergency Mayhem, Crisis City is living up to its name and its

citizens are panicking. Fires rage, bombs are ticking, monkeys have

taken over the supermarket and everyone's calling 911...

As the city teeters on the edge of collapse, players take charge of the

emergency services and attempt to bring order to the mad metropolis. As

instructions from HQ crackle in through the Wii Remote speaker, players

take to the wheel of a fire truck, ambulance or police patrol car and

race, against the clock, through the bustling city streets, dodging

traffic and driving down shortcuts to reach the incident scene.

On reaching an emergency, play switches to one of more than 30 mini-game

challenges and the Wii Remote is used in a huge range of wild ways to

save the day; ranging from putting out fires, restraining prisoners,

practicing CPR, to hurling bananas at out of control monkeys or herding

escaped penguins to safety!

No area of Crisis City is spared the mayhem. From the fairground at the

beach to the sky-scrapers of downtown, players will be delivering city

dwellers to safety in four precincts across eight diverse environments.

In addition to a massive single-player game, Emergency Mayhem also packs

a fantastic multiplayer mode with mini-game challenges for up to four

players. Prepare to save the citizens of the city from all manner of

crazy catastrophes when Emergency Mayhem arrives later this month,

exclusively on Wii™. For the latest movie and monkey-adorned wallpapers,

Hmm, another Emergency game? So now we have Emergency Mayhem, clearly a not serious, zany title, and Emergency Heroes from Ubisoft which seems like a more serious yet still arcadey title. Confusing. Perhaps someone should've opted for a different title for the game to separate them in people's minds.
