LOS ANGELES - December 7, 2010 - D3Publisher (D3P), a publisher and developer of interactive entertainment software, today announced Yogi Bear: The Video Game has shipped in North America. In Yogi Bear: The Video Game, licensed by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, players take on the role of Yogi Bear in a platform adventure to save Jellystone Park from being shut down forever.
