Snoqualmie, WA. Aug 30, 2000

Amiga Inc. and Hyperion Entertainment are pleased to announce a long-term alliance to bring Hyperion�s impressive list of award winning games to the Amiverse.

Hyperion�s games are a testament to the high standard set by the Amiga community. Much like the New Amiga, Hyperion has raised the bar to a higher level. We are proud to include Hyperion in our future. We are equally pleased to see such a steady stream of notable developers validating our platform.� Said Randy Hughes, Vice President Sales and Strategic Alliances at Amiga Inc.

The initial list of titles being developed for the Amiverse include:

Heretic II: Already released for Classic Amiga PPC, Heretic II is a gothic-style first-person shooter.

Sin: A super realistic ego shooter in a not-too-distant future with an intriguing plot to solve and many levels to "clean-up". Sin is due in Q3 2000.

Shogo: Fight with your Mobile Armor Division Mech through futuristic cities and natural sites. Face a civil war in Mech mode or Soldier mode in this award winning ego shooter, written with the famous LithTech 3D Engine by Monolith. Shogo is also slated for Q3 2000.

Freespace: Development has already begun and is to be completed in Q4 2000. Freespace offers many space flights combats and mission for this space opera among stars and nebulas. A great simulation for a great story of space war.

Alien Nations: Development is just under way. In the style of Age of Empires II, Alien Nations will allow you to lead your people to survive attacks from your enemies. Live long and prosper in the levels of this great Real Time Strategy game.

Soldier of Fortune: The highly acclaimed ego shooter of the year will come to the Amiga. Designed with the help of SEAL people, SOF is one of the most realistic ego shooter. Experience fights against terrorists and criminals, train to be better and always remember to shoot first.

"Hyperion will announce new games in the near future, as we negotiate deals with new licensors including some of the industry's biggest names. We want to bring the Amiga the hottest and most recent games, as it was the case in the great Amiga gaming times. With the arrival of new hardware such as faster graphics cards, the Amiga will enjoy a new level of performance allowing the Amiga to keep up with bigger and better games. Keep your Amiga updated, stay tuned and roll on the Amiga One!" said Ben Yoris, PR Manager of Hyperion.
