November 1, 2005 - Heavy Iron Studios latest movie-to-game sequel, The Incredibles: Rise of the Underminer has been stuffed into boxes and is headed to retailers nationwide. Published by THQ as a sequel to the final moments of last year's blockbuster movie, The Incredibles, Rise of the Underminer puts players in control of Frozone and Mr. Incredible himself as they travel underground to defeat the mole-like super villain, the Underminder. Co-op multiplayer action and upgradeable special moves are listed as the game's highlights, while an original story approved by Pixar helps move the Incredibles mythos forward.

"THQ is extremely excited to bring fans of The Incredibles a new adventure that picks up where the film and the first installment of the game ended," said Jack Sorensen, Executive Vice President of Worldwide Studios, THQ. "Game developer Heavy Iron's collaboration with the team at Pixar illustrates the commitment our companies have to delivering an experience that is true to The Incredibles world."

Frozone and Mr. Incredible are rushing to stores now.
"The first game based on The Incredibles truly complemented the high action vision Director Brad Bird had for the film," said Pixar Animation Studios John Walker, producer of The Incredibles. "The Incredibles: Rise of the Underminer continues where the film left off, challenging gamers to explore a whole new dimension of The Incredibles world."

"The Incredibles has experienced enormous success and has become not only a great film property, but a powerful video game franchise with opportunities to develop new characters and environments within The Incredibles universe," said Graham Hopper, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Buena Vista Games.

Rise of the Underminer is available now in select locations for the PC, PlayStation 2, Xbox, and GameCube with a Helixe-developed version also available for the GBA and DS. All versions of the game should be available in stores everywhere by tomorrow.
