For the first time ever, kids can now experience the fun and adventures of the snow-covered, online virtual world of Club Penguin on Nintendo DS. The highly-anticipated Club Penguin: Elite Penguin Force video game from Disney Interactive Studios, which hits retail stores today, joins the new line of Club Penguin toys and books now available in stores.

“Club Penguin has grown tremendously and the roll-out of products for kids to extend their experience beyond the computer has been a huge success,” said Craig Relyea, senior vice president of global marketing, Disney Interactive Studios. “Club Penguin: Elite Penguin Force takes that one step further by taking a popular storyline from the virtual world and expanding it onto the DS.”

In Club Penguin: Elite Penguin Force for Nintendo DS, players become agents of the Elite Penguin Force, waddling their way through secret missions, solving mysteries and connecting with the online world of Club Penguin in new ways. Players will use both familiar and all-new gadgets, accessories, disguises and vehicles as they set out on new missions to investigate puzzling events in the world of Club Penguin.
