Ignition Entertainment has announced that George of the Jungle will soon be hitting Europe. This side-scrolling platformer based on the popular Jay Ward classic will be available for the PlayStation 2, Nintendo Wii and Nintendo DS video game consoles.

In George of the Jungle, players swing, run, jump, climb and charge their way through the Jungle, collecting bonus items and overcoming an assortment of obstacles along the way. A lot of characters from the old Jay Ward series also make an appearance, including Ursula, Magnolia, Dr. Scott, the Witch Doctor, Shep and of course Ape.

George of the Jungle will be released in Europe in Q1 2008. That's still a long way off, so check out these screenshots of the Wii and DS versions in the meantime.
