Xicat to ground control ChopLifter: Crisis Shield is ready for take-off

Xicat Interactive, Inc., a publisher of award-winning video games, is set to release ChopLifter: Crisis Shield. Xicat adds the finishing touches (as well as a new name*) to their exciting helo-rescue title set for release in March 2003 for PlayStation2®.

New screens and preview copies of ChopLifter are available offering players the rush of saving a life while putting their own on the line. For a comprehensive look at the game, head producer and in-house pilot Don Zabriskie is available for interview.

ChopLifter allows players to select from six different helicopters as they charge through the skies, engaging in perilous missions rescuing the wounded and helpless from certain doom. Sweat will pour from their helmets as players save victims within the game’s 22 missions - which include a hotel fire, an erupting volcano, chasing an explosive-packed bus or a mountain-top plane crash.

With ChopLifter: Crisis Shield, lives are on the line, including yours. Available throughout North America for PlayStation2® in March of 2003 (rating pending).

* The name was changed from ChopLifter: Search and Rescue to ChopLifter: Crisis Shield, due to a combination of license and trademark issues.
