Posted on Worth Playing (iEntertainment Network announced it will develop the first MMO game to tie in with the initial theatrical release of a major motion picture, the upcoming MGM release of FLYBOYS, an Electric Entertainment film, to be released on Sept. 22nd 2006).

Details:

IENT will publish a single player game combined with an MMOG that puts the player in the pilot seat of a Nieuport 17 biplane to participate in exciting World War I era missions inspired by the FLYBOYS movie. These missions provide the excitement of the close-in dogfighting action of America’s first fighter pilots as depicted in the movie.

“The opportunity to produce an MMOG based on a flying movie that uses state of the art special effects is unprecedented. We are thrilled to be publishing a complete online flying game for all the fans of the movie and flying enthusiasts worldwide,” says JW “Wild Bill” Stealey, a US Air Force Retired Aviator and CEO of IENT.

The FLYBOYS Squadron MMOG demo will go live on September 7, 2006 for players who register for this free download at www.flyboysgame.com. Additional airplanes, terrain, interface and other features will be available in the complete retail game when it reaches stores this month.

The FLYBOYS Squadron game will include true simulations of 10 of the most famous aircraft of World War I, accurate World War I terrains, over 15 single player missions for players to hone their flying skills and obtain medals and rank from flying accomplishments, and easy FREE access to the MMOG where hundreds of other real aviators will be flying in historical and real simulation of World War I combat. (Retail customers get FREE access to the MMOG for one month.)
