Packed with all of the features and stunning
visual effects that made the original so successful, this new mobile Prey is
wrapped in a fresh storyline with several new locations and an original score.
After crashing and rolling his jeep not far from his reservation, Tommy regains
consciousness and sets out in search of help. He treks down a canyon for hours,
finally coming upon the entrance to a mysterious structure.and so begins this
new adventure within the compelling Prey universe.
Taking advantage of the mainstream penetration of high-end consumer handsets,
Prey will be available on a variety of formats, including BREW, and playable
across a broad array of mobile phones. The game is scheduled for availability
across all major carriers in summer 2007. The announcement between MachineWorks
Northwest and SkyZone is part of a multi-title agreement to bring several
high-end action games to the mobile platform.
"Our relationship with MachineWorks is designed to bring the best of PC and
console entertainment to mobile, and we think titles such as Prey will
significantly change the way people think and feel about gaming on handheld
devices," said Neil Haldar, Vice President of Content Programming and Strategy
for SkyZone Entertainment, Inc. "These next-generation 3D graphics and familiar
game mechanics are everything you'd expect from a MachineWorks-developed game,
and there will be huge appeal among both hardcore gamers and mass-market
consumers looking for compelling 3D gaming."

market, and this agreement marks a new era in mobile gaming," said Andreas
Vasen, CEO of MachineWorks Northwest. "MachineWorks and SkyZone share a common
view about what makes a great game and how to get the most from today's
