REDWOOD CITY, CALIF. - March 23, 2004 - Konami Digital Entertainment -
America (KDEA), a division of Konami Digital Entertainment, Inc., today
announced that the new stealth action adventure game, Cy Girls, has shipped to retail outlets in North America. Marking the debut of two new action heroines, Ice and Aska, gamers lead these spy divas on a perilous mission around the globe to fight crime and put an end to cyber-terrorism. Cy Girls packs two discs in one box so players can experience two distinct adventures as either Ice or Aska. Based on the popular Japanese action figures 'Cy Girls' from toy maker Takara(r), Cy Girls for the PlayStation(r)2 computer entertainment system is a new and unique action game with two different worlds, two styles of gameplay and two sexy female action stars.
With the use of explosive firepower and deadly martial arts skills, players
must choose between Ice or Aska to take down criminals with their own
individualized moves, abilities and storylines. A highly skilled markswoman
with an arsenal of weapons at her disposal, Ice has the ability to shoot in
all directions while executing acrobatic, death-defying moves. Aska, on the
other hand, is a ninja master trained to wield the katana while utilizing a
variety of fighting techniques to take down enemies.
Traveling from South America to the Far East to North America and beyond,
the Cy Girls romp through a series of unique levels in both the real world
and a parallel virtual world. While in the real world, players must master
their characters' physical strengths in order to overcome their respective
opponents. However, upon entering a parallel virtual universe, players will
have to tap into their character's hacking abilities to uncover clues that
will lead them to the mastermind whose intent is to destroy the world's
infrastructure.
The story is enhanced by a sophisticated control scheme and
never-before-seen game mechanics that allow the Cy Girls to perform amazing
acrobatic moves. Players will discover a multitude of gameplay options
within the game, including a unique eight-way directional control that
allows players to move the girls in multiple directions while attacking.
Moreover, gamers will also be able to fully control the camera view at all
times, ensuring that the angles capture all of the intense, action-based
gameplay.
Cy Girls is rated "M" (Mature) by the ESRB and is available at retail
outlets nationwide for an SRP of $39.99. To learn more about Cy Girls,
