Davilex Announce Miami Vice News

In our opinion ‘GTA: Vice City’ just about hit the nail on the head for 80’s Cop Shows, however that’s not stopping Davilex from trying to cash in, with the announcement of a new game based on the license that surely provided the inspiration behind ‘Vice City’.<br><br>Miami Vice was without doubt one of the biggest TV shows during the 80s, focussing on the hard-hitting duo of Crockett and Tubbs, as they cleaned up Miami in their rather bright short-sleeved suits and accompanying mullets – ahhh how we miss them.<br><br>Although specific details are unknown at present, we’ve learnt that UK developer, Atomic Planet Entertainment, has been enlisted to bring the franchise to the Playstation2, Xbox and PC.<br><br>It’s too early to tell, however we suspect that the developers will use ‘Vice City’ success as inspiration; as such we’re promised a third-person action title with free-roaming exploration alongside numerous encounters and missions.<br><br>"We are thrilled to have acquired the Miami Vice license and to have signed a solid development partner like Atomic Planet Entertainment" says CEO, Rogier Avis. "Making a game based on Miami Vice has been talked about a lot and I am proud Davilex will be publishing this highly anticipated title."<br><br>"We are really excited to be working on Miami Vice and with Davilex" says APE Development Director, Jason Falcus. "Davilex have acquired a fantastic license, and share our vision of creating a top quality game, which does it justice. We are very pleased to be working with them on what we hope will be a long term development partnership."
