Sierra's "Scarface" Scores 2 Million Units

"Scarface: The World is Yours", the video game based on the 1983 Brian De Palma film from Universal Pictures and published by Sierra Entertainment, has sold more than 2 million copies worldwide at retail stores.

The game originally shipped October 2006 and will now be available for the Wii™ Console this summer, taking advantage of the console's 'Remote' and 'Nunchuk' controller design.

"Scarface: The World is Yours" was created through a licensing agreement with Universal Studios Consumer Products Group. It is the eighth game to sell more than a million units and the third title to sell more than 2 million units for Radical Entertainment, one of Sierra Entertainment's four internal studios.

The game presents a sequel storyline that asks "What if Tony Montana survived the mansion shootout?", plunging players deep into the underbelly of 1980's Miami.

Players are challenged to re-enact the climactic mansion shoot-out from the original film, but in the game the player has the opportunity to help Tony fight his way out of the mansion and survive. As Tony, the player must then rebuild his fallen empire and seize vengeance on his enemies.
