What we have for you today is the first ever gameplay video for Code Lyoko. The game itself has a battle system that will let players use a wide variety of skills like shooting, puzzle solving, fighting, and even exploration. Well, with this video, we learned that we should add another one to that list: racing. This Neko Entertainment-developed and The Game Factory-published title is looking good with every update; here's hoping it lives up to its hype.

Anyway, here's a piece of trivia about Code Lyoko. It was originally a television animated series (currently on-going) in France. The show is about students Aelita, Jeremie, Odd, Ulrich, and Yumi and their adventures inside a supercomputer housing the virtual world of Lyoko.

Code Lyoko is expected to become available during Q4 2007.

We've heard very little regarding a Game Factory game called Code Lyoko. So little that it was only included in an announcement that included four other cartoon titles on handhelds. Today, we've got some new screenshots of the title and a bit of info regarding this upcoming title.

Code Lyoko is based on a French animated series that features CGI and animation currently produced by MoonScoop. The story centers on five boarding school students, Aelita, Ulrich, Yumi, Odd, and Jeremie. They are enrolled at Kadic Junior High School and were ordinary (okay, not so ordinary) students until they discover a supercomputer hidden in a basement of an abandoned factory near their school. Along with that discovery, they uncovered the virtual world Lyoko and Xana's - the villain - evil plans for world domination.

Anyway, Code Lyoko will reportedly feature RPG and adventure elements with 15 quests and 15 levels, and four of the students as playable characters (Jeremie will probably be like Kim Possible's computer geek Wade). There haven't been any announcements regarding release, so until then, you can check out these screens.

The rest of the screens right after the jump!
