Scarface Game Gets The Skywalker Treatment

Sierra Entertainment’s new video game Scarface: The World is Yours is scheduled to hit retail stores October 8, and will feature sound design and audio effects on par with big-budget Hollywood blockbusters, mixed at George Lucas’s Skywalker Ranch by Oscar-winning sound designer Randy Thom.

“Scarface is an icon of American cinema and the game needs to live up to not only the film’s enduring legacy but also quality level of today’s best blockbuster films,” said Cindy Cook, Vivendi Games’ chief strategy and marketing officer. “Our goal from the very beginning was to deliver the best possible experience as Tony Montana. By partnering with the best sound studio in the world and working with a Hollywood legend like Randy Thom, we have ensured that the sound quality in Scarface: The World Is Yours will be second-to-none.”
