Wilderness ExplorersDisney have announced a new 'Wilderness Explorers' interactive adventure game will be launching at Disney's Animal Kingdom this spring. The adventure game will be based around the Disney Pixar movie 'UP'.

Interestingly up until this point, Disney have seemingly distanced themselves from UP in the parks, with all merchandise related to the movie being removed from shops across the Walt Disney World resort in mid 2012.

From the Disney Parks Blog:

Have you seen the Disney•Pixar film “Up”?

If you recall, young Russell from the film is a dedicated Wilderness Explorer who can’t wait to earn badges by having all kinds of adventures while learning about the world.

We’re happy to announce that the Wilderness Explorers adventure organization is coming to Disney’s Animal Kingdom, with a planned opening this spring. Soon, guests can become Wilderness Explorers and experience the entire park using their field guides, completing challenges and earning badges as they go. With more than 30 badges available, Wilderness Explorers is fun for the whole family and helps guests experience Disney’s Animal Kingdom and its themes in a new and exciting way.
