Acclaim Entertainment announced today that it has signed an exclusive global publishing agreement with Juice Games for its street racing title, Juiced, currently in the works. The high-octane racer will come stocked with more than 50 licensed vehicles, real-time modding with hundreds of authentic aftermarket parts, realistic car physics and damage, online head-to-head play, and a never-before-seen concept of "crew based" racing, where players can recruit drivers to race together as a team.


"Juiced is not just another handsome racing game, it is a full extension of the culture that embodies street racing," boasted Rod Cousens, Chief Executive Officer of Acclaim. "Today's racing enthusiast wants more than just the control of the steering wheel; they want to fully personalize their experience, from the drivetrain to the decals. Juiced will give players the opportunity to go from artist to overdrive and test their mettle online in one of the best head-to-head racing experiences ever brought to the next-generation platforms. Gentlemen, start your engines!"

"Acclaim is renowned for their ability to launch exciting and successful new brands in a global marketplace," added Colin Bell, Juice Games' Managing Director. "Their proven expertise in the genre is perfectly matched with our technology and passion for game development. We're confident that this collaboration will continue to foster an ideal creative environment that will result in a world-class racing game."

Juiced will be racing to stores in fall, although a suggested retail price is still pending. The game's official website is scheduled to launch in a few weeks – we'll be sure bring you more coverage once it's live and kicking.
