Majesco Entertainment has announced they will release a video game for Sony's GHOST RIDER next summer to coincide with the release of the film. Climax (U.K.) is working on the new game for PlayStation 2, Xbox and PlayStation Portable platforms.

Garth Ennis and Jimmy Palmiotti will write the story for the game, which will pick up where the film leaves off. A Majesco Entertainment spokesman said, "The Ghost Rider game offers a unique combination of high-impact combat and motorcycle action infused with supernatural elements."

Players will take on such villains as Blackheart and Mephistopheles. They will be able to ride the Hell Cycle on water and boost over jumps.

The Marvel comic has sold more than 45 million copies since it was introduced in 1972.
