The vast savannas of Africa await exploration as Majesco announce Wild Earth: African Safari for the Wii home video game system. Developed by Super X Studios, Wild Earth: African Safari is a spectacular safari adventure set in Africa’s Serengeti National Park where players can take award-winning photos of the continent’s exotic wild life.
Wait where gamers take photos? there’s no hunting the beautiful animals? No slaying the for sport because there’s a kick in shooting an animal doing it’s own thing, in its own environment, whilst you stand 500 meters away with a high powered rifle? Well where’s the fun in that! Sarcasm will be switched off from this point forward. I’m glad they’ve done the camera thing, makes a nice change and I did enjoy Pokemon Snap so…

“Wild Earth: African Safari encompasses several great passions – photography, travel and the outdoors – and combines them into a fun and informative interactive experience,” said John Merchant, Marketing Manager, Majesco Europe. “With exclusive new features found only in the Wii version, Wild Earth: African Safari lets people experience one of nature’s most complex and diverse habitats, without needing their passport or inoculations.”

In Wild Earth: African Safari, players assume the role of a photo-journalist on a journey to visually chronicle 30 different wild animals inhabiting the Serengeti National Park. From aggressive packs of hyenas to massive rhinos, the beautifully re-created panorama of the African veldt unfolds as players attempt to capture the shots to create informative magazine quality pictorials. But be warned; get too close to the animals or disrupt the natural landscape and the Impact Meter will rumble your Wii Remote, making it harder to snap a steady picture. Awesome! No release date yet though.
