INTERPLAY OBTAINS PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION AGAINST LASERSOFT FOR TRADEMARK
AND TRADE DRESS INFRINGEMENT OF INTERPLAY'S DESCENT

October 4, 1995 -- Irvine, California -- Interplay Productions announced
today that it has obtained a preliminary injunction against Lasersoft,
Inc. in its lawsuit filed September 21, 1995. United States District Judge
Alicemarie H. Stotler previously issued a temporary restraining order
enjoining sales of Lasersoft's computer game software DIMENSIONS FOR
DESCENT employing packaging similar to Interplay's runaway success
Descenttm;. Following a hearing held October 2, 1995, Judge Stotler
continued her order in the form of preliminary injunction finding that
Interplay had shown a probability that it would prevail on the merits of
its claims against Lasersoft.

Under terms of the order, Lasersoft is required to remove existing versions
of DIMENSIONS FOR DESCENT from retailers' shelves. Christopher Kilpatrick,
president of Interplay, commented on today's ruling: "We are pleased that
the court vindicated our position by issuance of the preliminary
injunction against Lasersoft. Although our case to this point has only
raised trademark and related claims, which is the basis for our victory,
we are taking steps and gathering information to explore expanding the
case to include copyright claims as well. As a matter of company policy,
Interplay believes in vigorously protecting its intellectual property
rights."
