Jackass The Game has been out in the US for some time now. In fact, we reviewed it back in January - somewhat negatively.

And with practically zero anticipation built up for the title, it's been quite easy to forget it hasn't actually reached UK shores yet. But all that is about to change - Jackass's publisher Empire Interactive has announced the game will be released across Europe on September 19th.

The game features all the stars from the gross-out TV series that's been almost forgotten now - including Johnny Knoxville and Steve-O. You visit each one - Tony Hawk's style - to pick up a mission, then complete it in the game's free-roaming world.

There are stunts to pull off, tricks to play and shopping trolleys to ride down hills. Which all sounds good, but Jackass is one glitchy and unforgiving game.

Still, if taking on the role of a Dickhouse Productions intern and pulling off stupid stunts appeals to you, you might be interested in its better-late-than-never release date. We'd advise reading our review before forking out money on it though.
