Empire Interactive, a wholly owned subsidiary of Silverstar Holdings (NASDAQ: SSTR), today announced that Jagged Alliance for Nintendo DS is currently under development by Strategy First Inc. and Cypron Studios.

Jagged Alliance is an explosive fusion of role-playing game and turn-based tactical combat, allowing players to become fully immersed in their characters. A new generation of gamers will be charged with liberating the Island of Metavira through the nonlinear gameplay that made the 1994 original so popular amongst gamers.

"Jagged Alliance provides an exciting blend of RPG and turn-based action, which has already won over fans worldwide," said James Spice, vice president of marketing at Empire Interactive. "It's the right time to bring the game's frenetic battles to Nintendo DS and offer a new generation of players an exhilarating gameplay experience."

"Jagged Alliance for DS is one of the many highlights in our upcoming release pipeline and this announcement augments Empire's commitment to bringing quality titles to a global market," said Clive Kabatznik, CEO of Silverstar Holdings. "The title will prove to be a truly entertaining experience for DS gamers."

Under Empire Interactive's recent distribution arrangement with Atari, Inc., Jagged Alliance will be distributed exclusively by Atari in North America.

Now THAT's great!
I really hope they're not able to mess it up.
But is this gonna be a just a conversion of JA to DS or a completely new game?
