EDISON, NJ--(Marketwire - Nov 3, 2011) - Majesco Entertainment (NASDAQ: COOL), an innovative provider of video games for the mass market, announced today that The Hidden, an augmented reality (AR) ghost hunting adventure for the portable Nintendo 3DS™ system, is available now.

"The new genre of augmented reality is an exciting direction for video games because it combines the real and virtual worlds in an unprecedented way," said Jesse Sutton, CEO, Majesco Entertainment. "The Hidden is all about bridging worlds which conceptually is a great fit for the ghost hunting theme. Gamers everywhere will get a thrill out of discovering what's truly hidden in some of their favorite real-world spots."

As a member of the elite squad known as the Ghostly Entity Investigation and Strike Team (G.E.I.S.T.), you must work with your team to destroy evil spirits and neutralize mysterious outbreaks that pose threats to all mankind. To find every ghost in the game, players must also bring their Nintendo 3DS with them to new locations and investigate the world around them in twelve exhilarating missions.
