EA's Trivial Pursuit Video Game Hits Retailers

Hasbro's 25-year-old board game Trivial Pursuit is now available as a video game through Electronic Arts' EA Play Label.

The trivia game features three play themes including classic, clear the board and facts & friends modes. There's also a profile feature that keeps track of player statistics, number of games won and more.

"We're introducing new ways to play that will keep everyone engaged, competitive and on the edge of their seat," says Chip Lange, general manager of EA's Hasbro division. "Players will need to bring their wealth of knowledge to the game, as well as a detailed understanding of what their opponents may or may not know in order to run the board to victory."

The Trivial Pursuit video game retails for $39.99 for Playstation 3, the Wii and Xbox 360, and for $29.99 for Playstation 2. A mobile version of the game will be released later this month for the iPhone.
