Starbreeze's Xbox 360 and PS3 Riddick 'remake' Assault on Dark Athena has slipped and will miss its planned 2007 release. Publisher, Sierra, told us that the title has now been moved to 2008.
A Sierra spokesperson was unable to give a reason for the delay, however we reckon it may have something to do with the minor ruckus that erupted over Dark Athena's content - i.e. the fact that a good portion of the content consists of the original title Escape from Butcher Bay - when the game was first announced in May.
It could well be that Sierra and Starbreeze have taken the moans to heart and are now planning additional new content beyond the Dark Athena expansion with its new story and new gameplay features, and multiplayer. But we'll have to wait and see.
