Trivia / Peter Jackson's King Kong

• Keep Circulating the Tapes: Like many movie tie-in games (especially those not part of a long-running franchise), the expiration of licenses means the game is highly unlikely to ever be available for sale again. The "Gamer's Edition" with enhanced graphics was only ever available digitally, and Ubisoft stopped selling it before the end of the 00's. The Amazon store was the last place you could get the game, and they stopped selling it around 2018. OEM discs of the game that were bundled with graphics cards do exist, but are quite rare. The standard edition (a straight port of the PS2 version) is still available on retail discs, but will not work on modern versions of Windows (Windows 8 or newer). The Xbox 360 version was surprisingly made backwards compatable on Xbox One, but cannot be purchased digitally due to the aforementioned licensing issues and requires a disc to play.
• Role Reprise: Naomi Watts, Adrien Brody, Jack Black, Evan Parke, Jamie Bell, Thomas Kretschmann, Andy Serkis, and Colin Hanks, all reprise their roles from the movie, making this one of the few video game adaptations where the entire cast returns. The fact that Peter Jackson himself was one of the game producers may have had something to do with it.
