Riddick coming to Macs
Virtual Programming has announced that it will be porting Starbreeze's The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena to the Mac. The game includes a graphical update of its prequel, Escape from Butcher Bay, as well as the new Dark Athena campaign. The Mac version will also feature six multiplayer modes not present in the PlayStaytion 3 or Xbox 360 versions. Vin Diesel reprises his vocal role as Richard Riddick, the game's anti-hero.
Players assume the role of Riddick, a hardened criminal granted night vision. The title is a first-person shooter, and in the new missions tasks gamers with escaping the Dark Athena mercenary craft, while defeating the ship's captain, Gale Revas. The game should be rated M for Mature, the same rating received by the PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 versions. A release date has not be announced for the Mac port.
