NAMCO BANDAI GAMES’ WARHAMMER®: BATTLE FOR ATLUMA™ SHIPS ACROSS NORTH AMERICA

New Collectible Card Game Experience Takes to Battle on the PSP® (PlayStation®Portable) System

SANTA CLARA, Calif., (November 14, 2006) – Leading video games publisher and developer NAMCO BANDAI Games America Inc. announced today that Warhammer®: Battle for Atluma™, a new collectible card game set in the popular Warhammer® world, has shipped today for the PSP® (PlayStation®Portable) system. This game of strategy and quick wits offers players more than 400 cards to collect, trade and ultimately use to conquer their opponents.

“Warhammer: Battle for Atluma is an immersive portable card-based game that encourages a strong sense of community among players through head-to-head battles, card collecting, trading and strategy sessions,” said John Whitmore, Director of Internal/External Development at NAMCO BANDAI Games America Inc.

Developed by JV Games, Warhammer: Battle for Atluma allows players to enter the Old World and battle their way through the vast armies of either the Grand Alliance or the evil Hordes of Darkness. Along the way, the secrets of Atluma will be revealed that will help shape future battles, but players will need to be decisive to outwit their opponent and secure the ultimate prize - the Atluma Crystal.

Exciting features of Warhammer: Battle for Atluma include:

§ Wireless multiplayer gameplay which allows players to battle a friend and trade cards by connecting wirelessly;

§ Life and death decisions which weigh heavily as players must carefully choose their battles. One wrong battle can lead an army to defeat, while one strategic victory can win new warriors from an opponent;

§ The ability to build a custom army deck that can stand the heat of combat. Players can access more than 90 different units through recruitment, conquest and trade;

§ An extensive tutorial system that helps beginners jump right into the action and start competing like a seasoned veteran.
