Konami Announces Release of Ant
Nation for Nintendo WiiWare

Ants, Bugs and Alien Invaders
Come to WiiWare and DS

Konami Digital Entertainment, Inc.
today revealed new screenshots from Ant Nation, the strategy simulation game
launching today on Nintendo WiiWare and later this summer on DS.

Life in the ant colony isn’t easy,
but fortunately they have you to help them. Ant Nation for WiiWare enables
gamers to venture into the unseen backyard world of an ant colony struggling
against attacks by ladybugs, spiders and whole lot of beetles. Help your ant
friends survive by utilizing the tools in your shed to build their strength. Use
flames, lightning, a hammer and even rockets to zap, torch, and manipulate your
ants, making them numerous enough and tough enough to survive the increasingly
difficult challenges they will face in the bug-eat-bug world of the backyard ant
colony!

Ant Nation for DS returns gamers to
the beleaguered backyard ant colony and life hasn’t gotten any easier. Aliens
and their robotic bug minions are invading! Fortunately, a scientist has just
started working at a nearby lab, and not just any scientist, but a mad
scientist… and they’re the best kind to have on your side if you’re facing
annihilation by alien invaders. With his help you can create an army of
unstoppable ant soldiers to counter the alien threat! Work quickly to whip your
ant comrades into shape, so they can build up resistance to heat, water and
poison, and become strong enough to evolve and defend their settlement and the
planet against foreign intruders. With nearly 100 missions available and six
different environments, Ant Nation for DS is the one ant vs. alien real time
strategy game every gamer must own!

Ant Nation for Nintendo WiiWare is
available now. Ant Nation for DS will be available later this summer 2009.
