An Eragon video game, based on the upcoming fantasy-adventure film, will be available in November.
Attendees of the Electronic Entertainment Expo, May 10-12 in Los Angeles, can get a preview of the multi-platform game, which engages console and PC gamers in dragon flight/flight combo action and magic-based combat, while handheld players can perform touch-screen spell casting and dual-screen attacks.
The epic movie, based on the best-selling novel by Christopher Paolini and starring Jeremy Irons and John Malkovich, will be in theaters December 12.
Eragon is a young farm boy who discovers, with the help of a blue dragon, his destiny as a Dragon Rider, and that he alone has the power to save — or destroy — an empire.
