D3Publisher said Wednesday that its Cartoon Network licensed title Ben 10: Protector of the Earth has sold 2.5 million units worldwide.
The multiplatform game, now selling for $19, launched just over a year ago on October 30, 2007. It was the first Ben 10 interactive game, and is available for Wii, PS2, DS and PSP.
D3P released a follow-up on October 28 this year, titled Ben 10: Alien Force The Game. The new title retails for $39 on Wii and PS2, and for $29 on DS and PSP.
“We look forward to even greater success with the recently released sequel," said Yoji Takenaka, president and CEO, North America and Europe at D3P.
The Ben 10 Cartoon Network series revolves around a 10-year-old boy who finds an alien device that grants him superpowers.
I'm inclined to try this game simply because the show is great. I'm 24 and yes... I think a show for seven year olds is great. It has a noticeable quality to it that most recent cartoons lack. The game is probably garbage riding on the popularity of the show, but what great source material for a game! Hopefully we can get something based on Alien Force... but maybe that's the sequel they speak of?
