CHICAGO, IL – AUGUST 20, 2008 – Interzone Futebol, a virtual world soccer MMOG (Massively Multiplayer Online Game) from Interzone Entertainment scheduled for a 4Q08 launch, makes its action debut today with the release of its first trailer at www.interzonefutebol.com and http://www.youtube.com/interzonefutebol.
The trailer takes gamers and soccer fans on a 90-second odyssey through the colorful 3D virtual world of Rio de Janeiro, shows crowds of Brazilians enjoying the beaches, shops, and urban life in the city’s Ipanema neighborhood, and culminates with an exciting, fast-paced soccer competition in a giant stadium.
“Our first trailer gives viewers a fun glimpse into the world of soccer and the rich life inside our virtual world,” said Interzone Entertainment president Marty Brickey. “There is something fun for soccer players of all levels, and for non-soccer players who can enjoy a wide variety of activities we offer in Interzone Futebol.”
