to new realms
But as William Oertel, the producer at Universal Interactive who worked on The Scorpion King: Rise of the Akkadian, explained, this is not so much a sequel to the successful film starring The Rock, but a prequel to that movie.

Description
This 3D combat-adventure chronicles the future Scorpion King's first adventure, a long and arduous quest to thwart an evil lord's diabolical plan to raise a supernatural army of beast-warriors to conquer the world. Players will wield multiple attack combinations against jabronis -- whoops, we meant enemies. The action takes place in breathtaking vistas of ancient Egypt. The story shapes up as a prequel to the upcoming "The Scorpion King" movie, in which World Wrestling Federation superstar The Rock plays hired assassin Mathayus, better known as The Scorpion King. As the titular hero, The Rock (nee Dwayne Johnson) reprises his role from the 2001 hit "The Mummy Returns."
