Bigpoint and Fox Consumer Products Launch Ice Age Online

Fox Consumer Products and Bigpoint have announced the international open beta launch of Ice Age Online. Based on the motion picture franchise, Ice Age Online brings together theĀ  film characters and environments in a free-to-play, browser-based adventure game with a host of social features. The title offers fans a new way to enjoy the franchise alongside the global release of Ice Age: Continental Drift, in theaters in 3D this month.

In Ice Age Online, players take on the role of a sloth who discovers the perfect home for its herd, but suddenly becomes separated by a volcanic eruption. To survive, players must rescue the lost members and build camps for their prehistoric animal friends through a combination of mission and jump-n-run gameplay. Throughout multiple game modes and the World Map, a variety of locations can be explored ā€“ the Ice Floes, Grassy Plains, Jungle, and Glacier ā€“ based on familiar settings within the blockbuster movie franchise.

The platform game, built atop the Unity 3D platform, will also feature a friends list, activity graph, leaderboards, and the opportunity for friends and families to visit each otherā€™s camps and leave gifts behind.Ā  As players learn to utilize special skills and master the collection of precious acorns and materials needed to construct camps, they will unlock new achievements and bonuses ā€“ including one level where players are able to take control of Diego, the lightning-fast saber tooth tiger, and race along a challenging obstacle course.

Ice Age Online is available in 10 languages worldwide. Players can access the game for free and play directly in their web browser. For more game news and updates on Ice Age Online, visit the official website at www.iceageonline.com.
