Charlie Mancuso, President, Live Nation – Motor Sports says, “We feel we have found a partner in Activision that shares our vision for both an authentic Monster Jam game that will appeal to the core Monster Jam fans, and a game that will also appeal to gamers by going above and way beyond anything we could do at the live events; it will have it all. Activision’s strong relationships with retailers in addition to their strategic marketing and promotional direction for the game were important in our decision to collaborate with them. We are looking forward to the launch of the game this holiday, and Monster Jam fans and video-gamers alike should rest assured that an outstanding video game is in the works.”

The first Monster Jam Truck game is expected to hit stores by the end of 2007. It will have 20 of the world’s top monster trucks on the Monster Jam circuit, including Grave Digger, Maximum Destruction, Monster Mutt, and El Toro Loco. Though Activision has rights to publish the game on all the platforms, they haven’t revealed any details regarding which platforms the game will release on.
