"Atari is the creator of the original hunting series and has defined the hunting game genre," said Paul Rinde, senior vice president of Infogrames. "The hardware lifecycle of PlayStation 2 has evolved to include a broad audience of gamers and bringing Deer Hunter onto a next generation console represents an excellent opportunity to leverage those gamers along with our loyal hunting fans."

The Deer Hunter game exploded onto the scene in 1997 and created a whole new market which continues to thrive today. Atari's PC hunting franchise has outpaced and outsold all other competitors over the course of the past five years with more five million units sold to date, according to data from The NPD Group

Atari will also be launching a new Deer Hunter PC product this fall. Deer Hunter® 2004 is completely new from the ground up. The game features a new graphics engine that provides spectacular outdoor locales and realistic animal animations. Developed by Southlogic Studios, Deer Hunter 2004 will extend the boundaries of hunting authenticity.
