The Chronicles of Riddick Screenshots Lack Color

by Chris Faylor, Dec 02, 2008 10:12am PST

As part of today's Atari Live press event, Atari has released a few new screenshots from Starbreeze's updated shooter The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena.

A remake of The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay, Dark Athena packs an extra campaign, multiplayer modes and enhanced visuals over the 2004 PC and Xbox original. It's slated to arrive in PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 form next spring.

So they've gone from beating dead horses to those that are still alive and kicking. Very desperate and unimaginative.

I played this through on PC, XBox, and will probably play it again on this PC re-release! On the other hand, my roommate refuses to play any video game based on a movie, so he's gonna miss out.

This is a great game, but having already paid for both the original Xbox version as well as the PC director's cut, I'm going to have to pass.

The other colors will be available as DLC. :)

I'm looking forward to this after hearing how good Butcher Bay for the Xbox was and not being able to play it with backwards compatibility on the 360.

Did Riddick sell that well? It was a great game but Riddick's not exactly the strongest license. Seems like a risky move to do a remake of a game that (I'm assuming) didn't destroy sales charts instead of a new game.
