Peter Jackson's King Kong: The Official Game of the Movie 2005
Developed by Ubisoft Montpellier
- Shooter, Adventure, Action
Play as man. Play as Kong. Embark on an epic adventure created in collaboration with Academy Award-winning director Peter Jackson and based on the Universal Pictures' film. Survive as Jack in a world crawling with predators and live the legend as Kong. Use weapons, traps and your team wisely to survive in first-person as Jack. Break jaws, slam enemies and throw massive objects in Kong's third-person battles. In 1933, an ambitious filmmaker named Carl Denham charters a tramp steamer to the uncharted and forbidding Skull Island, bringing along scriptwriter Jack Driscoll and aspiring actress Ann Darrow to shoot his movie. When the expedition lands, the crew quickly discovers the island is a nightmarish world untouched by time, teeming with monstrous insects, vicious predators, and towering prehistoric beasts. Disaster strikes when the native islanders capture Ann and offer her as a sacrifice to Kong, a colossal gorilla who rules the jungle. Torn between terror and devotion, Jack plunges deep into the wilds to rescue her, armed with little more than scavenged weapons and his own resolve. Players experience the ordeal from two perspectives, guiding Jack through tense first-person survival and taking control of the mighty Kong himself as he battles giant creatures to protect Ann. Together their intertwined struggles drive a desperate fight for survival on Skull Island.
