Sierra Entertainment has done it once again and has picked up yet another adventure game to publish! The game, called The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor will be based on the new Mummy movie coming out this summer, which is in the same series of Mummy movies from the actor Brendan Fraser.

YES! A new adventure game based off of a movie! And a pretty cool series of movies on top of that. Especially if you like mummies and archeology. Which, who doesn’t? And if you don’t, you probably aren’t nerdy like me.

That’s not necessarily a bad thing, either.

Here’s the story:

In the third-person action-adventure game The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor, players will take on the roles of Rick O’Connell and his son, Alex (played by Brendan Fraser and Luke Ford, respectively, in the film). Gamers will follow the lead characters on their harrowing journey - across exotic locations from ancient Chinese catacombs to beautiful, but dangerous, Himalayan peaks - to defeat the revived servants of the Dragon Emperor (Jet Li). The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor allows players to switch seamlessly between gunplay and hand-to-hand melee attacks, and also features a fast and fluid combat system and an arsenal of weaponry that can be used to vanquish the many bone-chilling enemies players will face during their journey. Fans of the upcoming Universal Pictures film, directed by Rob Cohen and set to hit theatres this August 1, will fight their way through The Mummy universe by utilizing combat, puzzle-solving and hieroglyphic decoding gameplay elements.

The game is due to hit the shelves in August of 2008 for the Wii, PS2 and DS.
