The new Shrek title has officially hit store shelves, so fans can enjoy themselves.
Activision Publishing announced today the availability of the Shrek Forever After™ video game, which is based on the highly anticipated Shrek® feature film from DreamWorks Animation SKG, Inc. Starting today, gamers can team up with friends in the ultimate Shrek game, working together to conquer that crafty Rumpelstiltskin.

Throughout the adventure, gamers can use the Magic Mirror to travel between Shrek's normal world and his alternate reality for double the fun.
