Ong Bak Tri features three core elements of gameplay: intense fighting action, impressive free running sequences and highly cinematic quick-time action events. The game itself is presented as a 2.5D side-scroller, with gorgeous graphics running on the Unity Game Engine. One of the most important goals for Ong Bak Tri was to deliver an authentic Ong Bak experience. Tony Jaa has lent his likeness to the game character and the development itself was closely accompanied by the great minds behind the movies, in particular the movie director, Thossaporn Poonnart, and the original creator and master choreographer, Panna Rittikrai.
“We are really excited to be working with such an internationally renowned brand”, comments Christian Sauerteig, CEO of Immanitas Entertainment, “we are confident that we will be able to deliver a game that will appeal to both gamers who love great action games as well as fans of the franchise”. Kan Supabanpot, General Manager at Studio HIVE adds: “We are very happy to collaborate with such an experienced company like Immanitas Entertainment. It’s a great honour for our team to work on the first very first Ong-Bak multiplatform game.”
