      Blues Brothers 2000 is a platform game for the Nintendo 64 console, released by Virgin Interactive in October 2000 in Europe, and by Titus Software in November 2000 in North America. The game is a platformer, loosely based on the band and the film. Due to major delays[citation needed] it was released two years after the film of the same name but in the year the film was set.

      Gameplay

      The game player starts out as Elwood in prison who needs to get the band together for the battle of the bands, which is in less than two days. After saving the guitarist, Cab, then defeating the warden, the player progresses through Chicago, in hopes of finding Mac and Buster. After going about the rooftops, the player enters Willie's Club, where Mac is being held captive. After defeating Willie, Mac says that Buster has escaped to the old graveyard[citation needed]. Arriving there, the player finds that an evil tree has put Buster in a cage. The final battle takes place in a swamp.
