Jaleco Entertainmentâ„¢ is pleased to announce that it is developing and publishing
Goblin Commanderâ„¢: Unleash The Horde, an innovative action-strategy
game for the next-generation consoles set in an epic fantasy universe. A fourth
quarter release is planned.

In Goblin Commander: Unleash The Horde, players battle their way through the
war-torn land of Ogriss, a world ruled by goblins. Spawned by the mighty wizard
Fraziel, the goblins have fallen under a corrupt influence that now threatens
the balance of power. Advancing through dark subterranean caves, lush woodland
cities and towering storm-swept castles; the player wages war with an army of
specialized goblin warriors and fearsome monsters to prevent the ultimate destruction
of Ogriss.

“The Goblin Commander IP will mark a revolutionary step forward in
console gaming,” said Jaleco Entertainment President Richard Wnuk.
“Before each mission, players are able to choose a unique clan type,
each with their own combat specialties. This adds a whole new dimension to the
strategy gameplay experience, providing a compelling new challenge to each mission
– all with excellent replayability. We are confident that fans will find Goblin
Commander to be the best action-strategy game on consoles to date.”

Goblin Commander: Unleash The Horde sets itself apart from other Real-Time
Strategy games with fast arcade-style action, richly detailed and destructible
environments, and an easy-to-master control scheme designed specifically for
console game pads. The project is spearheaded by strategy game developers Ron
Millar and Chris Millar, who are known for their work on best-selling titles
within the StarCraft®, Warcraft® and Diablo® series.

“We’re thrilled to be bringing one of today’s hottest genres to console
gamers around the world,” said Chris Millar, producer. “Goblin
Commander offers plenty of fun fighting and destruction yet has enough thought
provoking strategic and tactical elements to keep even the most hardcore RTS
fan challenged and satisfied. It’s a perfect blend of brains and brawn.”

Jaleco Entertainment plans full-force marketing support of Goblin Commander:
Unleash The Horde, including an official website, multi-media advertising and
retail promotions.
