Kane & Lynch: Dead Men Announced

We reported on the game earlier in the month, and today Eidos officially announced the development of Kane & Lynch: Dead Men. Hitman developer IO Interactive is working on this third person action game which we'll see on PC and Xbox 360 next year. Two screenshots can be found here.

Kane & Lynch: Dead Men is a violent and chaotic journey of two men -- a flawed mercenary and a medicated psychopath -- and their brutal attitude towards right and wrong. This volatile partnership combined with innovative technologies allow for an unparalleled gaming experience. "Using state-of-the-art technology, Kane and Lynch: Dead Men delivers a raw and compelling story-driven gaming experience not previously possible on current generation hardware," said David Bamberger, US Marketing Manager, Eidos, Inc. "The power of the Xbox 360(TM) and Windows allows us to dive deeper into a world of disturbing realism."
