Family Guy
The Griffins are coming to a gaming console near you.

That’s right. Peter, Lois, Brian, Chris, Meg and the ever-loveable Stewie are poised to make their gaming debut this year with a title for current-gen consoles.

In a media release, 2K Games announced the deal with Twentieth Century Fox to create the games basked on the Fox TV series.

Developed by High Voltage Software, Family Guy will feature the offbeat humor 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 humor 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 colorful 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 humor 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."
