It’s been years since Prey 2 was announced, with an endless cycle of delays making it seem like we might never see the follow up to 2006’s cult classic shooter. During Bethesda’s E3 2016 press conference, they revealed that the game has been retooled, seemingly sharing little with its Xbox 360 and PC predecessor.

Now simply titled Prey, the new trailer follows Morgan Yu, a test subject who has been ran through countless experiments for the betterment of the human race. After waking up aboard a space station in the year 2032, Yu finds himself stranded on a ship overrun by hostile aliens. Using his unique abilities alongside any weapons he can find, Morgan will uncover the secrets surrounding the station and the experiments he was subjected to, all while fighting to survive his terrifying ordeal.

Developed by Arkane Studios, the team behind Dishonored, it’s safe to say that this new Prey game is a sequel in name only. With a new development team and a completely different premise, I’m really disappointed to see the portals and gravity physics disappear. Often seen as Portal years before Portal would be released, I can’t help but feel that Prey is losing some of its identity in the transition. With that said, Arkane is a very talented studio, and I have faith that they will be able to deliver a product worth playing when the game launches in 2017. Either way, it will be hard to wonder what could have been.

Want to check out the new Prey for yourself? Check out the reveal trailer below and share your thoughts with us.

Sony Pictures has closed a deal to acquire the film rights to the Valiant Comics series, Bloodshot, a 1992 comic book series that continues to be one of the revamped publisher’s strongest properties.

The story is about a killer for the mafia who is framed for a murder he didn’t commit, thanks to his mob family betraying him.  When he goes into Witness protection, he is immediately kidnapped and his body goes through the experimental procedure, “Project Rising Spirit.” His body is injected with nanomachinery, also refered to as ‘nanites’, that gives him superhuman abilities at the cost of his memories. He eventually escapes his captors and goes on a journey to rediscover the person he once was.

The script is being written by Jeff Wadlow, whose previous credits include the drama/horror movie, Cry-Wolf, and the screenplay for the horror thriller, Prey. Reportedly, the deal came out of Wadlow’s love for the comic and agreed to write the script on spec, and when Sony saw the script, they bought the rights. The film is also being produced by Neal Moritz, producer of The Green Hornet and the Fast & Furious series.

The idea is to develop the property as something that X-Men First Class director Matthew Vaughn can direct. Hopefully, the movie doesn’t come in a foil edition.
