THQ re-announces Kung Fu Panda 2

We already knew this on March 30, but THQ wanted to let us know (again) that Po is back! No, we're not talking Teletubbies-Po, but Kung Fu Panda Po... who will be back on both Nintendo DS and Wii (uDraw GameTablet). No Nintendo 3DS version this time.

Po will burst into living rooms everywhere today with the release of THQ's Kung Fu Panda 2 video game, available on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, uDraw GameTablet for Wii and the Nintendo DS, currently titled Kung Fu Panda 2.

Gamers' skills will be put to the test as Po and his friends find Gongmen City threatened by a new evil and embark on an all new epic kung fu adventure. The release of the Kung Fu Panda 2 video games comes just two days before the eagerly anticipated theatrical debut from DreamWorks Animation SKG.

"The Kung Fu Panda 2 video games offer enormous innovation and creativity that bring the excitement of the movie to your living room," said Martin Good, Executive Vice President of THQ's Kids, Family and Casual Games. "We've created unique elements for each platform so players can have different experiences with the same great story."

On THQ's uDraw GameTablet for Wii, players control Po with the uDrawTM stylus to fight and defend Gongmen City in story mode. Epic battles against new enemies ensue amid a backdrop that players themselves bring to life. An exclusive drawing mode lets players personalize their game experience by coloring objects found throughout the game, which become part of the story. The uDraw also offers coloring pages and one-of-a-kind mini-games that feature the adorable baby Po, who is also featured in the movie.

The PlayStation3 version of Kung Fu Panda 2 highlights the strategy and wisdom inherent in kung fu, requiring players to deliver "acu-punches," "thunder strikes" and "kung fu curls" while adding logic skills to help players master their talents as the one and only Dragon Warrior, Po.

On Nintendo DS, Kung Fu Panda 2 allows players to command Po as well as the Furious Five using the stylus, unleashing awesome kung fu moves with Tigress, Monkey, Crane, Viper and Mantis. In addition, the Nintendo DS version offers two-player wireless gameplay, as well as the addictive card game "Five-Card Fu," which can be played alone or with friends and offers endless fun.
