Midway today announced the development of Spy Hunter: Nowhere to Run, the next installment in the top-selling Spy Hunter franchise that dates back to the original arcade game. Stepping out of the Interceptor for the first time and into action will be Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson in the role of the ultimate secret agent, Alex Decker.

"Midway is taking the classic Spy Hunter franchise in a powerful, new direction that will be led by the casting of Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson as the game's main character," said Steve Allison, chief marketing officer, Midway. "For the first time in the Spy Hunter franchise we are allowing the player to step out from behind the wheel of the Interceptor and straight into the action."

Midway's Spy Hunter is also set to be the subject of a major motion picture from Universal Pictures. More information on Spy Hunter: Nowhere to Run can be found at www.midway.com.

SpyHunter: Nowhere to Run takes the Spy Hunter franchise where it's never gone before -- on foot. Featuring action superstar Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson as government super-spy extraordinaire Alex Decker, players for the first time ever can step out of the Interceptor and straight into third-person action, utilizing The Rock's physical prowess by taking down enemies with intense melee combat moves. In Nowhere to Run, the evil NOSTRA corporation returns, this time with a plan to steal the latest government technology including the world's most sophisticated spy vehicle, the Interceptor, and it's up to Alex to stop them.

Spy Hunter: Nowhere to Run is scheduled to ship in summer 2006 for the PS2 and the Xbox.
