Save 10% and get free music from legendary Donkey Kong Country composer David Wise

Chameleon Games’ third-person action-adventure Tamarin™ is now available for pre-order on PlayStation 4 in the US and PC worldwide for 10% off its usual $29.99 / £22.99 / €27.99 price.

Pre-orders include an exclusive first listen to a tune from the game’s soundtrack. Fans of acclaimed composer David Wise, known for the atmospheric Donkey Kong Countrysoundtracks, will be excited to know that it’s a composition of melodic beauty, inspired by scenic Norwegian Fjords.

Pre-order on PC at the Tamarin website will additionally receive free Tamarin wallpapers and cheat codes, and have the option to order a Deluxe Edition that includes the full soundtrack.

Tamarin stars the world’s cutest monkey on a quest to save his family from ever-expanding insects intent on industrializing the forest and driving other species to extinction.

Explore an incredible interconnected 3D world, brimming with primate platforming and bug-splattering shooter action. Leap with the agility of a tamarin as you journey into the Northern wilderness on scenic routes through forests, fjords and mountains. Along the way you will chase mysterious electrical fireflies, discover a secret underground world of dancing ants, rescue innocent birds, and restore the tamarins’ once idyllic natural habitat.

Director Omar Sawi has brought on an all-star cast from Rare’s golden era to help execute his creative vision for Tamarin and recapture the style and magical experiences they were famous for. The creators of iconic characters such as Diddy Kong, Banjo-Kazooie, and Battletoads are responsible for Tamarin’s concept art, pre-production and character design. In addition, Donkey Kong 64 artist Richard Vaucher leads the art production and provides energetic, responsive animations. Donkey Kong Country composer David Wise adds a catchy and melodic soundtrack. This is complemented by impactful sound effects by action-title veteran Graeme Norgate (GoldenEye 007, Killer Instinct).

Tamarin has been a labour of love for me and everyone working on it. It’s so exciting to finally have it up on the PlayStation Store and on our website,” said Omar Sawi, Founder of Chameleon Games. “Pre-order it now and you’ll both get a chance to get a brand-new 3D adventure at a reduced price and listen to some of its incredible soundtrack – created by David Wise, surely one of the greatest video game composers in the world! I’m so grateful for the atmosphere of the music – especially to have such a wonderful track inspired by the beautiful Norwegian landscapes where I grew up – and which you’ll soon get to explore in Tamarin!”
