Vin Diesel recently did an interview with ScreenCrush, where he let some news slip about a new Riddick game that's in development.

"My diehard gamers want Tigon to deliver the third chapter in the Riddick game," Diesel tells ScreenCrush. "We, just of the past couple of months, just this year, reassembled that team from Starbreeze that brought Escape from Butcher Bay to create the third game."

Unfortunately, Diesel didn't divulge any further on platforms, release window, or even what we'll encounter in the game.

Starbreeze Studios worked on Escape from Butcher Bay and Assault on Dark Athena, but as Diesel said, it's the Butcher Bay team working on the new project.

Our Take

If the gamers plead enough, sometimes things come together wonderfully. I'm glad they're bringing back the team that worked on Butcher Bay, as that was one of the stronger releases in that series. Time will tell what's in store, but I'll confess it. I love when celebrities spill the beans early.
