Business Wire, April 3, 2006

LOS ANGELES -- The Mobile and Interactive Media Division of Capcom Entertainment, Inc. invites gamers to return to the days of yesteryear with the announcement that Ghost 'n Goblins is now available for mobile platforms. Based on the classic coin-op platform game, Ghost 'n Goblins casts the player as Sir Arthur, a noble knight on a mission to rescue Princess Guinevere from the demon of Hades.

"Ghost 'n Goblins is one of the most recognizable and beloved franchises from the golden age of video games," said Midori Yuasa, general manager and senior vice president of the Mobile and Interactive Media Division. "With classic video games continuing to grow in popularity and the increasing sophistication of mobile phone decks we felt the time was right to bring this classic title to market."

Keeping faithful to its platform roots, Ghost 'n Goblins for mobile platforms has players jumping and slaying through four massive levels populated with all manner of obstacles, enemies and other infuriating hazards. To help maneuver through the infestation of evil, Arthur can lob an assortment of spears, daggers, axes, crosses and torches to keep the bad guys at bay. Players can further buff-up Sir Arthur by collecting money and other devastating power-ups to unleash upon the hoards of zombies, ghosts, goblins, demons and other non-descript critters that inhabit the realm.
