Apparently Vin Diesel says it's a thing..

Quote:
For all the game lovers out there, we’re reassembling the team that made Escape From Butcher Bay. So we got our guys in Sweden that were part of Starbreeze and we’re pulling them back together to make the next Riddick game that we’re really excited about. [...] There’s this huge concept which is more of a MMO game that would be centered around people being able to play mercs and it’s basically the merc trade. There’s a very cool game concept behind that.

My diehard gamers want Tigon to deliver the third chapter in the Riddick game. And we just of the past couple of months, just this year, reassembled that team from Starbreeze that brought Escape from Butcher Bay to create the third game.

We'll see. If it's made by the original team then I will remain optimistic at least until we see something more concrete. Also, he said:"...concept which is more of a MMO game...". It's still a concept and I don't think we've even heard anything from the devs yet. With that said, I'm worried that the concept hints at Riddick not being the main character which I really wouldn't like. Keeping my eye on this.

Riddick Universe is wasted potential,good setting,and main Character. the first Video game was the best,the first Movie is nice,but it's sequels always manage to mass up somehow. the latest Riddick film could be so much better,started decently to good from start to late mid. but when it come to the ending it just fall apart Sad

It's a bit misleading what he said because the odd artist from the original team might return but pretty much all the leads are working on the new Wolfenstein game.. and I don't see them leaving Bethesda..

But I don't really care who makes it as long as it's good.

Quote:

When Vin Diesel said he got members behind the two excellent Chronicles of Riddick games to make a new title in the series, we expected something far more ambitious. Riddick: The Merc Files for iOS is the first new game from the original designer of Escape from Butcher Bay and team members behind Assault on Dark Athena.

Launching on the App Store later this week, The Merc Files is a touch-based stealth action game where you control Riddick. "Escape them, trick them, or eliminate them. It's your choice," the announcement teases.

Given that it's "closely tied" to the latest movie in the series, we can't help but think it's something of a quick cash-in. Thankfully for fans, this iOS effort isn't the new game that Diesel had promised. According to the announcement (via Kotaku), this is but the first "in the ongoing Riddick saga."

Well it seems he has more planned according to the last statement of that article so maybe we'll see another announcement shortly?

Yes, that's not the "proper" Riddick game that is going to be an MMO. But that's most definitely the team that will make it, if it ever happens.

If somebody could transcribe the indecipherable parts would be cool. The quote begins @ 01:50.

Thanks. I haven't heard the word before, so I couldn't transcribe it.

Its definition doesn't really help me understand what he meant either (other than that he loves MMOs and an MMO is the dream game he wants to make). I still can't transcribe the closing part of his speech which could shed some light..

It's the same word both times, as far as I can tell, as for how it applies to what he meant? An interstitial is usually something that falls between definitions, so in this case he's talking about gamers that aren't really the "must do everything" kind nor are they the "I'm just playing because I'm playing" sort. At least.. as far as I can make out.

I know it's the same word, but he says a few more words than that which I can't quite understand either. Anyway, I see, thanks.

Haha, you're welcome Smile I guess in regards to the last part "It's these interstitials, that's what they're addicted to" - perhaps he's talking about story segments interspersed into gameplay? I'm not entirely sure.

If there's a proper single player game too in the plans, then count me very interested, otherwise I'll have to decline as usual. Razz
