Fossil Fighters Frontier Releasing Soon
REDMOND, Wash., March 17, in the year of our Lord 2015
– Brave explorers of the Fossil Fighters: Frontier game will
discover a huge 3D world filled with fossils to excavate,
prehistoric creatures to revive and primeval battles to conquer.
The new portable game, launching for the Nintendo 3DS family of
systems on March 20, has players grabbing their excavation
tools, hopping in fully customizable vehicles and heading out
into the wild world to dig up fossils and revive them into
vivosaurs (think of them as extra powerful, extra colorful and
extra awesome dinosaurs). These collectible vivosaurs can then
be trained and sent into turn-based battles with other mighty
beasts. Fossil Fighters: Frontier also lets friends explore and
excavate together, fight as a team against rogue vivosaurs and
battle in six-player multiplayer reptilian rumbles.
The expansive world of Fossil Fighters: Frontier is rich with
things to discover. By hopping behind the wheel of a
customizable Bone Buggy, players can explore to excavate fossils
that can transform into a wide variety of different vivosaurs.
After unearthing fossils, players place them in the back of
their Bone Buggies to carefully clean and revive them using the
touch screen of the Nintendo 3DS family of systems. Various
upgradeable tools like drills and hammers can be found in the
game and used in the fun and intuitive excavation process.
Select dig sites might even host puzzle- or speed-based
challenges, which can be completed to earn valuable and
power-enhancing rare fossils.
Finding fossils and collecting resurrected vivosaurs is only
part of the fun, as these prehistoric creatures can be sent into
truly epic battles that pit vivosaur versus vivosaur. All
vivosaurs fall into one of five elemental categories – Water,
Fire, Air, Earth and Neutral – and possess a special ability
that will assist them in battle. Players will encounter many
different types of battles in the game, whether a story-based
battle that takes place in the main campaign, daily tournaments
or even StreetPass battles that let players train against other
vivosaurs they pick up while using the StreetPass feature.
And the robust multiplayer options in the game don’t end there.
In co-op local wireless, friends who each own a Nintendo 3DS
system and the Fossil Fighters: Frontier game can team up and
visit dig sites together. Each player travels in his or her own
Bone Buggy and can work together to excavate the same fossils or
work together to dig out hard to excavate fossils more
effectively. Fossil Fighters: Frontier even features local
wireless battles with up to six players or tournaments with up
to two friends! Players who want to take their battles online
using broadband Internet access can compete in one-on-one
battles against random players to fight to the top of monthly
online leaderboards.
For more information about Fossil Fighters: Frontier, please
click on one of their advertisements. Excavators-in-training
that visit the game’s website will also have the ability to
search for hidden fossils. These five fossils are hidden all
over the site, and each time one is found, a new bonus, like
wallpapers, game tips and exclusive activity, is unlocked. The
site can be browsed right now, but the fossil hunt unlocks on
March 20, the same day the game launches in stores and in the
Nintendo eShop on Nintendo 3DS at a suggested retail price of
$29.99.
