Baby Stewie Gets One Step Closer to World Domination as 2K Games Brings Hit TV Series Family Guy to Current-Gen Video Game Consoles
2K Games and Twentieth Century Fox announced today an exclusive agreement to develop and publish "some freakin' sweet" video games based on the hit television series Family Guy. Working closely with Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane, 2K Games will bring the hilarious world of Peter, Brian, the tyrannical tyke Stewie and all of Quahog, Rhode Island to current generation consoles this fall.
Developed by High Voltage Software, Family Guy will feature the offbeat humor from the show's writers in an action/adventure style of gameplay, focusing on the lovable oaf Peter Griffin, his world domination-obsessed son Stewie and their talking, martini-drinking dog, Brian. Throughout the game, these popular characters wreak havoc in many of the same locations depicted in the animated series.
Family Guy performs solidly in all key demographics and regularly attracts almost nine million viewers each week. Family Guy is the only television show in history to be resurrected from cancellation based on blockbuster DVD sales and the strength of its ratings in repeat cable broadcasts.
