The upcoming game will be an action-adventure title that will revolve around a brand-new story that is inspired by the adorable Smurfs from the popular comics created by the iconic cartoonist Peyo. At the moment, details about the upcoming 3D game are still being kept under wraps, but in a statement released by Elliot Grassiano, vice-president of Microids, it was mentioned that “The worldwide success met by the Smurfs will also allow us to increase our brand awareness overseas and position Microids as a major payer internationally.”
