We’ve seen video games based off movies and books and movies based off video games. But, how about video games derived from T.V. shows? Better yet, how about cooking shows? Ludia Inc. is teaming up with Granada America Digital Media to offer a gaming version of the “Hell’s Kitchen” television series.
The multi-year, worldwide exclusive agreement with Granada will see Ludia bring “Hell’s Kitchen” games across all major platforms including PC, console and mobile.
“The show has millions of viewers, and the game will bring the fun of the kitchen boot camp experience from the TVs to the PCs and consoles of this rapidly growing audience,” Ludia founder and CEO Alex Thabet explained.
Celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay is prominently featured throughout the game, blazing up the kitchen with his trademark intensity. “His likeness will taste and comment on the culinary creations of players, as well as judge their overall performance. The game will also feature a recipe book with several of Gordon Ramsay’s favorite food concoctions for players to print, try out and share.
The game is slated to coincide with the upcoming fourth season of “Hell’s Kitchen” in the USA in 2008.
