 Interplay Signs Letter of Intent With Titus Interactive For $25 Million Equity
 Agreement

IRVINE, Calif., May 12 /PRNewswire/ -- Interplay Entertainment Corp. (Nasdaq:
IPLY - news), a leading interactive entertainment software company, today
announced that Titus Interactive S.A., a publicly traded French company
(TITP.LN) has signed a letter of intent to make a strategic equity investment of
$25 million in Interplay purchasing 6.25 million shares of Common Stock at $4
per share. In connection with this proposed transaction, Brian Fargo,
Interplay's chairman and chief executive officer, would also swap two million
personal shares of Interplay Common Stock for an agreed upon number of Titus
shares. This investment follows the March 19, 1999 transaction in which Titus
purchased shares of Interplay Entertainment Common Stock for $10 million.

The obligations of Titus are subject to Titus and Interplay entering into
definitive agreements. Concurrently with signing the letter of intent, Titus
made a $5 million short-term loan to Interplay, which is convertible into
interplay Common Stock if the definitive agreements are not completed. As part
of the agreement Titus Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Herve Caen would
become president of Interplay. Brian Fargo would remain as chairman and chief
executive officer of Interplay.

Interplay Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Brian Fargo said, "This would
provide Interplay with access to capital and the potential to increase console
revenues. The prospect of distributing Titus' strong line-up of licensed console
titles will allow Interplay to achieve a critical mass with strength in both the
PC and console market."

Fargo noted, "We are already seeing greater than anticipated sell-through on
"Baldur's Gate: Tales of the Sword Coast," which just began to ship last
Wednesday and we have "Descent 3" and "Kingpin" anticipated to be released in
the second quarter. The proposed Titus agreement will add a key component that
we did not previously possess -- impressive console products with great
licenses, and Herve joining Interplay would add a wealth of experience to our
executive management team."

Titus Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Herve Caen stated, "Our strength as a
company has been to create great console software with licenses that have a
significant following on a world-wide basis. The combination of Titus' scheduled
releases of "Superman," "Xena" and "Hercules" with Interplay's superb PC
products would benefit both companies. I look forward to the prospect of
becoming the president of Interplay."

Titus Interactive S.A., was founded in 1985 by Herve and Eric Caen. The company
has quickly grown into one of Europe's leading multi-platform software
developers and publishers. Titus has developed a number of highly acclaimed
games for both PC and console. With offices in Paris, Los Angeles, San Diego,
London and Tokyo, the company has established an extensive distribution network.
Titus trades on the French stock exchange Euro NM: (TITP.LN).
