Some of you may remember the name Prey. It has been around for a long time and was originally planned as a PC release many years ago. 2K Games and 3D Realms have announced that the game is back, under development at Human Head Studios who are using an enhanced version of id Software’s Doom 3 engine.
“Our collaboration with 3D Realms has been enormously rewarding,” added Timothy Gerritsen, CEO of Human Head Studios. “With their help, Prey is sure to breathe new life into the first-person shooter genre with a compelling story, innovative gameplay mechanics and dazzling imagery, which is powered by our significantly enhanced version of id Software’s original Doom 3 engine.”
Prey will be showcased at E3 (which starts in about three week’s time). ATI will have a movie theatre-style exhibition in which they will give eager attendees their first look at the game.
“The initial concept for Prey had been incubating for a while, waiting for the right opportunity to come along,” said George Broussard, President of 3D Realms. “We jumped at the chance to create this game with a talented developer like Human Head Studios and next-generation technology like the Doom 3 engine.”
Scott Miller, CEO of 3D Realms, added, “Prey is special for many reasons, including several new and original gameplay features and a tightly integrated story that packs an emotional punch, unlike other first person shooters.”
Prey is currently scheduled for a 2006 release on PC and what we predict to be the Xbox 360.
