Jimmy Fallon Intro to Anything with an Engine

LOS ANGELES–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Grab your tuxedo and join Jimmy Fallon in his spy car as he battles five-time NASCAR champion Jimmie Johnson in the over-the-top kart-racer Jimmie Johnson’s Anything With An Engine from Autumn Games, a premier publisher of interactive entertainment, and game developer Isopod Labs. “Late Night” host Jimmy Fallon will be the first downloadable content (DLC) character in Jimmie Johnson’s Anything With An Engine, which launches next week as boxed product for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, followed by a Wii release in November. Fallon’s character was revealed when he and Johnson played the game on “Late Night,” which aired on NBC Wednesday, Oct. 26 at 12:35 a.m. A clip of Jimmie Johnson’s appearance is available here: http://www.latenightwithjimmyfallon.com/blogs/2011/10/jimmie-johnson-can-race-anything-with-an-engine.

 ”One of the motivations behind making this game was to have fun with my friends,” said Jimmie Johnson. “I have been on Jimmy’s show a few times and we have raced against each other. The last time he beat me, so having him in the game as the first downloadable character was the perfect way to step up our racing rivalry and to invite our fans in on the fun.”

Fallon’s character and vehicle will be available later this year on Xbox Live Arcade and the PlayStation Network. A portion of the proceeds from sales of the Jimmy Fallon DLC character will go to the American Red Cross, the nation’s premier emergency response organization.

“Jimmie’s goal from the start was to create a fun and creative racing experience, where players could race anything – from bathtubs to barstools,” said Jason Donnell, president and COO, Autumn Games. “Given the game’s focus on fun and personality, we couldn’t think of a better creative partner for the first DLC character than Jimmy Fallon. We’ve had a blast working with him and his team on his character. It has been doubly rewarding for us to have the opportunity to not only give fans great new content so soon after launch, but to also give them the chance to support such an impactful organization as the Red Cross.”

Jimmie Johnson’s Anything With An Engine allows players to race in vehicles created from the most unlikely of everyday objects – from dumpsters to lawnmowers – fulfilling Jimmie’s “Anything with an engine!” motto. Lead-footed drivers will engage in elimination-style circuits across progressively challenging tracks, complete with pyrotechnics-laden theatrical sets strewn with wicked hazards, traps and jumps. The game features up to eight-player online multiplayer action on supported consoles, including ranked and private races, and up to four players in split-screen multiplayer as they battle for first place across the couch, around the globe, or both.

Jimmie Johnson’s Anything With An Engine is available beginning next week, at retailers including Amazon, GameStop, Toys R Us and Walmart.
