In a move to garner as much of a market as possible, “Lost” will soon be a video game, Reuters reports today.

The deal between Touchstone Television (which is owned by Disney, which owns ABC, which airs “Lost”) and French-game producer Ubisoft, will see a game based on the show available for consoles, portable game players and PCs.

Its release will tie into the fourth season premiere, next September.

This isn’t the first time “Lost” fans have been given more than their weekly dose of the show. Throughout the season the book, “Bad Twin,” by Gary Troup, was found on the island and read by many of the castaways. The castaways said Troup was a passenger on flight 815 and is presumed dead. The book was put on sale earlier this month.

Also this month, “Lost” creators unleashed the “Lost Experience” where fans could spend the summer searching for clues in commercials of the show and on the web as a way to try and solve some of the island’s mysteries.

It is unknown at this point who, if any, cast members from the show will participate in the new game. Ubisoft also developed games for the “CSI” franchise.
