Ong-Bak was a great movie and soon the film will be turning into a video game on multiple platforms sometime this year.

The Thailand-based video game developer, Studio HIVE, has secured rights to the series and will be working very closely with Sahamongkol Film International to make sure it creates a proper storyline for the game.

Akarapol Techaratanaprasert, the business development director for Sahamongkol Film International stated:

Ong-Bak is well known as a powerful international martial arts brand. We are very selective with our licensing partners and found in Studio HIVE the right partner to bring Ong-Bak to gaming platforms. Their approach to tie in movie and game is the right way to create a perfect interactive entertainment.

The General Manager of Studio HIVE, Kan Supabanpot added:

It’s a great honour for our team to work on the very first Ong-Bak multiplatform game. As a Thai development studio we love the movie and have a deep understanding of the Ong-Bak brand values and we make sure that the videogame will be an inspiring martial arts action experience for gamers.

Well this could be exciting! Can’t wait to see some trailers.
