Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena
Atari just confirmed that The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena will be released next Spring. In addition, they also announced a PC version, which will ship at the same time:
Previously announced as a remake of hit title The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay with added content, Atari can today reveal that The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena contains a brand new full-length campaign. This exciting announcement promises a title which will include the original game re-imagined for a whole new audience, an entirely new chapter in the Riddick saga and, for the first time, intense online multiplayer combat, making The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena a must-have experience for any fan of intense action gaming.
In The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena the player takes the role of Riddick, as played by Vin Diesel, using stealth and action to overcome the merciless crew of the predatory Merc-ship Dark Athena which awaits its prey in the dark reaches of space. Cheating death through a series of spectacular battles and events, Riddick will fight for his life amid a storm of malevolence and horror. The Chronicles of Riddick series of games takes the player deeper into the universe of Universal Pictures' films The Chronicles of Riddick and cult classic Pitch Black, which first introduced Vin Diesel as enigmatic anti-hero Riddick.
Featuring a brand new exhilarating adventure, a high-definition re-imagining of the classic Escape from Butcher Bay campaign and new multiplayer options, The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena will thrill fans when it launches in spring 2009.

Riddick does not use id's engine. It uses Starbreeze's own proprietary, Starbreeze Engine. |

Awesome! Butcher Bay was one of the best games from the last few years. I just hope they don't oversimplify it too much.

i remember Riddick even if i didnt finish it. Game was great, even if it didnt run smoothly on my old pc. Atmosphere of the world was brilliant. Now its time for a new adventure and i believe that new Riddick will be much better. And i hope it will take more than 10h to finish it like today's games

Didn't play Butcher Bay, when it first came out, my machine didn't have the juice to handle it.
Looking forward to this one.

Well, the last Riddick movie DID actually turn a profit, but just barely, so there is a chance for a new one, I suppose.

Dear god no! Please not another Riddick movie! The game was excellent but the last movie was just awful. As crappy as Matrix 2+3 imo.

You don't like it? Don't watch it. I liked both of the movies, so I'll watch it. And play the game too.
