"Bakugan Battle Brawlers was one of the best-selling NDS games of the holiday 2009 season, and the toy and TV show continue to climb in popularity," said David Oxford, Activision Publishing.  "It's thrilling to work with such a hot property and bring the Bakugan universe to life in another way with Bakugan Battle Trainer."

In Bakugan Battle Trainer, Bakugan fans find out first hand what happens before and after the brawls. Players master the secrets of training their Bakugan while choosing how to improve their skills and abilities with an in-depth training mode that helps their Bakugan excel at all aspects of battling. Ultimately, players send their rigorously trained creatures into battle with a mission to free their imprisoned brethren from the enemy's hold. Beyond this ingenious style of play, the classic elements of Bakugan are in place - collect up to 30 creatures, intense battle action, and the ability to improve your rank by defeating opponents.

"Activision has been the ideal partner in taking Bakugan to the video game space," said Doug Murphy, President, Nelvana and GM, Corus Kids. "The response from fans to last year's Bakugan Battle Brawlerswas incredibly enthusiastic, so we eagerly look forward to our next step with Bakugan Battle Trainer."
