In a terse announcement today, Sega revealed that it is preparing a multi-platform video game tie-in for the upcoming Iron Man 2 film.

Development of the game is underway at Sega Studios San Francisco, previously known as Secret Level, which worked with A2M on last year's critically-panned Iron Man video game.

Specific platforms and gameplay details were not provided, with Sega only noting that "players can expect an entirely new and enhanced gameplay experience" due to a refined engine.

The game is expected to arrive alongside the Robert Downey Jr.-starring film in 2010.
