Dive: The Medes Islands Secret Makes a Splash on the Wii July 26th..

More and more developers are taking the plunge to get players to explore the mysteries of the deep. Cosmonaut Games is now bringing out their latest title, “Dive: The Medes Islands Secret” to release soon on the WiiWare download service. This title takes players underwater across 10 different real world locations recreated for the new action/platformer. Players will face many enemies, discover hidden labyrinths, and find many treasures in the deep. You can also upgrade your equipment over time so you may dive even further into the unknown.

“It was in the Great Medes Monastery, in 1412, where Martin I “The Human”, leader of an Order of the Temple and long-time resident of the island, was buried. The secrets of the Order were also buried with him, where they would be sealed in the same crypt and kept through the centuries. But two hundred years later, an earthquake split the island in two and the crypt disappeared into the depths of the Mediterranean Sea.”

As John Sanders, you must now set out to the Medes Islands located in the heart of Spain to uncover all of the secrets of this mysterious place.
