The unique world of Tim Burton’s cult-classic stop-motion animated film The Nightmare Before Christmas can be experienced in interactive digital form as The Nightmare Before Christmas video games are now available in North America, Buena Vista Games announced today. Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas, Oogie’s Revenge for the PlayStation 2 and the Xbox video game system and Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas: The Pumpkin King for the Game Boy Advance system are now at retailers.

Staying true to the spirit of the enchanting property with engaging game play elements, original characters, memorable music and voice actors from the film, Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas: Oogie’s Revenge and Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas: The Pumpkin King bring the imaginative world to life like never before.

Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas: Oogie’s Revenge continues the story from the film while Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas: The Pumpkin King tells the story of the events before the film.

“The Capcom team and I were focused on capturing the absolute essence of the feature film while creating Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas: Oogie’s Revenge and Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas: The Pumpkin King -- both in the characters and the environments,” said Deane Taylor, art director for both the film and the video games. “’The Nightmare Before Christmas’ is a film that continues to delight audiences of all ages and I hope the video games will have the same impact.”

“The Nightmare Before Christmas property from home video to theme parks and merchandise remains both a year-round favorite and a Halloween tradition,” said Craig Relyea, vice president of marketing for Buena Vista Games. “BVG is pleased to offer gamers and Nightmare Before Christmas fans an opportunity to explore the fanciful Nightmare Before Christmas world with these new video games.”
