Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment has announced it has secured the rights to the F.E.A.R. name and in turn has re-titled Project Origin, F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin.

“The name addition builds upon the strong game recognition, which we will extend as we move forward reinventing the F.E.A.R. brand,” said Samantha Ryan, Senior Vice President, Production and Development, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment. “F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin will continue the legacy of the original F.E.A.R. game with story and combat while adding new twists, gameplay and graphics to expand the players’ experience.”

In F.E.A.R. 2 Alma, a girl with immense power and a thirst for revenge, has unleashed her wrath upon the city of Auburn and thrown it into chaos. A Special Forces squad must combat enemy forces and the supernatural as they struggle to find a way to stop Alma and uncover the mysterious forces working against them before it’s too late.

F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin is in development for Xbox 360, PS3 and PC and is scheduled for release across Europe on February 13, 2009.
