Electronic Arts will ship Superman Returns: The Videogame on Nov. 20. The game, which features storylines from both the Warner Brothers film Superman Returns and more than 60 years of DC Comics content, is being developed by EA’s Tiburon Studio in Orlando, Fla., and will be released for the Xbox 360 and other current-generation platforms.

Players will assume the role of the Man of Steel in a multi-dimensional open-world game where they can travel within the 80 square miles of Metropolis and from the street to the clouds. New flight mechanics will give the player full command of all aerial maneuvers. As Superman, the player must protect Metropolis from the most well-known villains in the DC Comics universe and conquer more than 100 missions that only Superman can overcome, including saving Metropolis and its citizens from destruction, battling enemies and saving the planet from natural disasters.
