The Hidden by Majesco Entertainment is now available at retail. The Hidden is an augmented reality where the player utilizes the Nintendo 3DS’ camera to help scan, detect and hunt ghosts. As a member of the the elite squad Ghost Entity Investigation and Strike Team (G.E.I.S.T), the player must destroy evil spirits and neutralize mysterious outbreaks that pose threats to mankind.
“The new genre of augmented reality is an exciting direction for video games because it combines the real and virtual worlds in an unprecedented way,” said Jesse Sutton, CEO, Majesco Entertainment. “The Hidden is all about bridging worlds which conceptually is a great fit for the ghost hunting theme. Gamers everywhere will get a thrill out of discovering what’s truly hidden in some of their favorite real-world spots.”
