"We're excited to work with Universal to create a video game experience based on the Scott Pilgrim universe," said Ubisoft vice president of worldwide licensing Christian Salomon.
"The game will combine all the important elements seen in the film: action, romance, irreverent pop culture references and rock-n-roll."
The film is based on a series of award-winning graphic novels that tell the story of a guitarist who believes he has found his ideal woman but must overcome her nefarious ex-boyfriends, who are bent on killing him.
"Video games have been a huge influence on the characters and world of Scott Pilgrim," said Bryan Lee O'Malley, creator of the original graphic novels.
The sixth and final volume of the "Pilgrim" series is to be released in 2010 with the debut of the live-action film and video game based on the works.
"We were hooked on Scott Pilgrim from our first read of the comics and script," said Bill Kispert, vice president of Interactive, Universal Partnerships and Licensing.
"The storyline mirrors the escalating structure of a video game, and it is filled with clever homage to video game culture."
