You knew it was coming, now Peter and the crazy cast of Family Guy is headed to a console near you this Fall 2006. Not much has been released about the game, no clue if it will be action, rpg, fps (huh?)…but well be sure to post more as it arrives.

2K Games, a publishing label of Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc., and Twentieth Century Fox announced today an exclusive agreement to develop and publish "some freakin’ sweet" video games based on the hit television series Family Guy. Working closely with Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane, 2K Games will bring the hilarious world of Peter, Brian, the tyrannical tyke Stewie and all of Quahog, Rhode Island to current generation consoles this autumn.

Developed by High Voltage Software, Family Guy will feature the offbeat humour of the show’s writers in an action/adventure game focusing on the lovable oaf Peter Griffin, his world domination-obsessed son Stewie and their talking, martini-drinking dog, Brian. Throughout the game, these popular characters wreak havoc in many of the same locations depicted in the animated series.

"The irreverent and satirical Family Guy humour that has made the show a smash hit opens up exciting and untapped possibilities in game development," said Christoph Hartmann, Managing Director of 2K Games. "We are looking forward to bringing the colourful Family Guy characters to life in a one-of-a-kind action/adventure style game."

Elie Dekel, Executive Vice President, Fox Licensing and Merchandising added, "2K Games really understands the distinct humour and unique voice of Family Guy. We’re confident that they will develop a hilarious and entertaining game for fans of the show as well as for gamers."

Family Guy performs solidly in all key demographics and regularly attracts almost nine million viewers each week. Family Guy is the only television show in history to be resurrected from cancellation based on blockbuster DVD sales and the strength of its ratings in repeat cable broadcasts.
