Sega to release Kinect/Move-based Olympics game in June 2012

Posted on January 20, 2012 by admin

If you’re feeling a bit left out that you could not compete in the Olympics but are itching for the experience, Sega may have the solution for you in the form of a new game that they have dubbed “London 2012 – The Official Video Game of the Olympic Games”. Yes it’s quite a mouthful and it will be available for both Sony’s PlayStation 3 console and Microsoft’s Xbox 360 console.

As you might have surmised based on the various sports games you might have played on either console, Sega’s Olympics game will be utilizing both consoles’ motion controls, which is the Move for Sony and the Kinect for Microsoft. This would allow players to play a Kinect-based game of beach volleyball, or take part in a marksmanship event with the Sony Move doubling as a pistol of sorts.
