THQs SCOOBY-DOO! MYSTERY MAYHEM game, licensed by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and based on the classic SCOOBY-DOO! television series, is now available for the PlayStation 2, Xbox and GameCube at retailers throughout North America.
"SCOOBY-DOO! MYSTERY MAYHEM is the most captivating Scooby console game to date," said Eric Doctorow, coo, THQ. "Not only does it have the quirky humor and ghoulish fun of the classic cartoon, but it also features a new style of adventure gameplay that calls for cooperation between Scooby-Doo and Shaggy, leveraging character-specific skills and friendship to successfully solve the mystery."
Players will lead their favorite teenage sleuths through SCOOBY-DOO! MYSTERY MAYHEM to solve a mystery of supernatural proportions. Players must maneuver Scooby and Shaggy, to crawl though holes, don scuba gear for underwater exploration and climb to retrieve out-of-reach items. Adventure-style gameplay involves capturing and outrunning monsters, searching for clues, hilarious costume changes and puzzle-solving in five creepy environments such as an abandoned movie set, the ghoulish Wild West, a dank bayou and a monster-infested laboratory.
Each of these sprawling locations features multiple levels with numerous cut scenes and climactic boss battles. SCOOBY-DOO fans should recognize authentic cartoon voice actors and effects from the cartoon such as canned laughter and classic catch phrases.

SCOOBY-DOO! 2: MONSTERS UNLEASHED for Game Boy Advance and PC CD-ROM are scheduled to ship in conjunction with the SCOOBY-DOO! feature film in late March 2004.
