Hugh Jackman, Patrick Stewart, Alan Cumming and Shawn Ashmore will reprise their X-Men film roles and lend their voices to Marvel's world famous mutants ? Logan/Wolverine, Professor Charles Xavier, Kurt Wagner/Nightcrawler and Bobby Drake/Iceman ? in Activision Inc.'s X-Men: The Official Game. The game catapults players into an original storyline that serves as a prelude to Twentieth Century Fox and Marvel Studio's upcoming film, 'X-Men: The Last Stand', and allows them to command the distinct powers of Wolverine, Nightcrawler and Iceman as they face off against formidable enemies, battle through massive environments and embark on an epic quest to save mutant-kind.

Co-written by Zak Penn, one of the film's screenwriters, and legendary comic book writer Chris Claremont, X-Men: The Official Game enables players to assume the roles of Wolverine, Nightcrawler, and Iceman as they wield and upgrade their signature powers and maneuver through unique environments designed to showcase their Super Hero abilities. Assisted by other Marvel X-Men mutants, players use an advanced control scheme to master and evolve the characters as they unleash Wolverine's combat rage, experience Nightcrawler's acrobatics and teleportation powers, and tear through the air on Iceman's ice slide.
