Ubisoft has continued to show its strong Nintendo support by announcing yet another new title for the DS, called 'Miami Nights: Singles in the City'. Described as a 'social simulation', the game is being worked on by Gameloft and uses the stylus and wireless communication features to take a definite adult approach to a 'The Sims' style game, giving players a wide palate of choice and mini-games to experience in bringing up their virtual creation. The game is due out in November, 2007.
In Miami Nights: Singles in the City players will be given a sense of freedom, lots of customisation options and longer multiple-goal scenarios. Gamers will be able to sample "a life of dreams, glamour, or trash." Life choices will transform their characters into unique, progressive individuals and ultimately help a player reach the game's final objective of becoming a 'star'.
Some of the key features are:
- The player can create the character in his image: aspects, unique look and feel, stats, customisation of his own place in Miami;
- Three ways to succeed: becoming a top model, a singer, an actor;
- Player can go wherever he wants in Miami and interact with anyone in more than 30 locations;
- Lots of mini-games, including shaving, make-up, dishwashing, waiter, ice-cream maker featuring the use of the Nintendo DS stylus;
- Multiplayer features: player can share his character & his characteristics with his friend via wireless multiplayer technology.
