Following yesterday’s magazine cover leak, Bethesda Softworks has officially announced Prey 2, the sequel to the 2006 original, for release in 2012 on PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC. It’s in development at Human Head Studios, the studio that created the original, using the id tech engine.
“We are thrilled to be working with Bethesda on Prey 2,” said Chris Rhinehart, project lead. “Prey 2 will provide gamers the opportunity to explore a new facet of the Prey universe, one that offers fast-paced action in an open, alien world. We’re excited to show gamers the title we have been working on and hope they will be as excited by this title as we are.”
Further details will be revealed in the upcoming issues of PlayStation: The Official Magazine and Official Xbox Magazine, as well as in other magazines throughout Europe.
