Digital Leisure Releases Dragon's Lair DVD-Video; One of the Best-Selling Arcade Games of All Time Now Available for DVD Movie Players GORMLEY, Ontario--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 6, 1998--Until now, most people were under the impression that their DVD movie player was designed to only play movies. But Digital Leisure has added a whole new dimension to the DVD experience. Digital Leisure today announced the release of the first fully interactive game, the arcade smash Dragon's Lair, for DVD movie players. As the first animated video game in history, Dragon's Lair features non-stop video action. Using the remote control from the DVD movie player, game enthusiasts can guide Dirk the Daring, a valiant knight, through the enchanted castle of an evil wizard encountering treacherous monsters and obstacles until he reaches the final confrontation with the evil dragon Singe in the Dragon's Lair. Dragon's Lair, the classic laser-disc based arcade game, features spectacular quality animation created by Don Bluth, a former Disney animator famous for his work on An American Tail, The Land Before Time and he also co-directed the more recent blockbuster Anastasia. In addition to the fully playable game, the Dragon's Lair DVD-Video release contains exclusive interviews with Bluth and Rick Dyer, co-creator and designer of the game. A special "Watch" option allows players to view the entire game without requiring moves on the DVD remote. Dragon's Lair redefined the gaming industry in the 1980s, is one of three games in the Smithsonian Institute (the other two being Pac Man and Pong) and has sold well over 1,000,000 units on home computer and video game consoles. "People will be amazed when they see what can be done with DVD," Elizabeth Foster, president of Digital Leisure said. "Many DVD-Video owners don't realize the hidden capabilities that are built into their machines. Dragon's Lair, possibly the most complex DVD-Video title authored to date, makes use of real-time decision making and user input to determine the flow of the game. Add this to the exceptional video and audio qualities of DVD and Dragon's Lair will surely raise the standard of customer expectations." Following the release of Dragon's Lair, Digital Leisure plans to release Space Ace and Dragon's Lair II: Time Warp for DVD-Video in early 1999. Dragon's Lair is also available on DVD-ROM and CD-ROM formats. Digital Leisure is a leading publisher of interactive DVD-ROM and DVD-Video titles. The company acquires and remasters existing video-intensive titles that would benefit from the superior video and audio quality of DVD.
