The launch of the game will coincide with the premiere of Asterix at the Olympic Games, a live action film starring Gerard Depardieu as Obélix, which will be released in over 40 countries throughout the world.

This is the third live action Asterix movie, following the success of the first two, which grossed $200 million at the box office worldwide.
The platform adventure game captures the atmosphere of the film and explores the plot as Asterix and Obelix compete in Greece to win the hand of Princess Irina for young Gaul, Lovestorix. Players start out on the streets of Athens before qualifying for events such as long jump, running, disk, football and the chariot race finale.
