Video game developer, publisher, and distributor Activision is working on a new poker title as a follow-up to its popular World Series of Poker title. Activision's new addition, World Series of Poker®: Tournament of Champions, will debut tomorrow at the E3 Expo. The Tournament of Champions game improves on its World Series of Poker predecessor by significantly increasing the number of poker pros whose virtual countenances are included in the game. Another neat feature is the "DigiMask," which traces a player's facial features and incorporates them into the game.
World Series of Poker: Tournament of Champions follows a storyline by which the player gets some expert training from Chris "Jesus" Ferguson. Players get ahead by competing in the WSOP circuit events against other poker stars, and thus qualify for the Tournament of Champions.
Jeffrey Pollack, World Series of Poker commissioner and Harrah's V.P. of Sports & Entertainment Marketing, called the new Tournament of Champions "the most authentic and realistic World Series of Poker video game to ever hit the shelves."
In honor of the new poker title's upcoming release, Activision will launch, together with Microsoft, a contest called "Play with the Big Boys Sweepstakes." The sweepstakes will give six people a trip to Vegas, and one particularly lucky player a chance to enter in the real WSOP main event. Players can enter the sweepstakes online at www.xboxpokersweeps.com or live at the E3 Expo.
World Series of Poker: Tournament of Champions will be available in stores this fall.
