Bristol, U.K. April 7, 2009 –Majesco Entertainment Company (NASDAQ: COOL), an innovative provider of video games for the mass market, and Twentieth Century Fox Licensing & Merchandising (Fox L&M), today announced Night at the Museum 2 for Wii, Nintendo DS, Xbox 360®video game and entertainment system from Microsoft and PC. Developed by Amaze Entertainment and Pipeworks, Night at the Museum 2 will launch in Europe at the same time as Twentieth Century Fox’s highly-anticipated theatrical release of the same name debuting in theaters May 22nd. Featuring the voice and likeness of the film’s star, Ben Stiller, the video game recreates the excitement and humor from the feature film as players adventure through Smithsonian exhibits that come alive at night.

“The original Night at the Museum movie was a true blockbuster in every sense of the word, having earned more than $250 million domestically and almost $600 million worldwide,” said Jesse Sutton, Chief Executive Officer, Majesco Entertainment. “The movie sequel has tremendous potential and at long last fans of the franchise can enjoy the museum magic at home in a videogame that extends the big screen experience.”

“The Night at the Museum franchise lends itself perfectly to the type of gaming experience that Majesco is creating.  It’s an action-packed adventure that is sure to amaze and entertain people of all ages,” said Elie Dekel, Executive Vice President Licensing and Merchandising for Fox L&M.  

In Night at the Museum 2, players assume the role of Ben Stiller’s character, Larry Daley, former night guard of New York’s Museum of Natural History. Larry must rescue Jedediah and his other friends from Akhmenrah’s brother who captured them while stealing a powerful Magic Tablet that can raise the Army of Horus to take over the world.
Daley is well aware of the havoc that history’s most notorious figures can wreak when the sun goes down and the museum exhibits come alive. He races to DC to help his friends in the Smithsonian. Using Larry’s trusty key chain and flashlight, players must solve puzzles and adventure through 14 levels including the Federal Archives, the National Air and Space Museum and the Lincoln Memorial. Gamers can travel in style on the back of a T-Rex skeleton, within the Lunar Lander and in the cockpit of Amelia Earhart’s Pitcairn Autogyro. Along the way, players must find pieces of the Magic Tablet and collect other items to unlock mini-games, new areas and bonus content from the Smithsonian including trivia questions, in-game audio tours and factoids.

About Night at the Museum 2
Get ready for a story so epic it could only unfold in the corridors of the world’s largest museum– the Smithsonian Institution. Museum guard-turned entrepreneur Larry Daley discovers that his favorite exhibits, and some of his best friends, from New York’s Natural History Museum are being shipped off to the archives at the Smithsonian.  Larry gets a distress call from the miniature cowboy, Jedediah, reporting that Egyptian ruler Kahmunrah and a trio of heinous henchmen – namely Ivan the Terrible, Napoleon and Al Capone  – are plotting to take over the museum, then the world.   Speeding to the nation’s capitol, Larry is clearly in over his head.  But with some impressive new pals, including the irrepressible Amelia Earhart, along with familiar friends Teddy Roosevelt and Octavius, Larry will stop at nothing to restore the Smithsonian before dawn. 

Specific to the DS:
Nintendo DS owners can also experience the spirit and humor of the movie in an entertaining side-scrolling adventure. Players use the Touch Screen to manage magic tablet pieces that change Larry’s abilities in real-time. Cling to walls, super jump, fly, shrink, charge and stomp your way through the Smithsonian while using Larry’s flashlight and key chain to navigate exhibits.

Night at the Museum 2 will launch in Europe on Wii, Xbox 360, Nintendo DS and PC on May 22nd. The feature length film also releases nationwide on May 22nd.  For additional information about Majesco’s exciting line of products, please visit: www.majescoentertainment.com and www.majescoeurope.com.
