The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay
Experience life behind the eyes of Richard B. Riddick as he sets
foot inside Butcher Bay, the toughest prison this side of hell.
Set before the events of the movie Pitch Black, the game tells the
story of Riddick's dramatic escape from Butcher Bay, home to the
most violent prisoners in the galaxy. As Riddick, you have a single
goal: escape from the prison by any means. You must draw on your
character's brains and brutality to attempt the unthinkable.
Played from a primarily first-person perspective (with special
third-person actions), you will have to make maximum use of the
environments to escape, including using shadows, subterfuge and
distractions to avoid patrols. Moving and attacking in darkness
is particularly effective for Riddick, as his haunting 'eye shine'
gives him the ability to see without ambient light. You will also
be able to sneak up behind enemies and snap necks, or fight face
to face using fists, elbows and grapples. Additionally, you will
be able to capture weapons and use them to cut a swath of destruction
through anyone who gets in your way.
Game features:
An intense, original story-line reveals secrets of Riddick's past and epic destiny to come.
Groundbreaking 3D graphics technology creates realistic harsh environments, dimly lit corridors and hazardous areas.
Revolutionary game design fuses frenetic first-person shooter action, stealth and brutal hand-to-hand combat.
Use the dark corners and vast catacombs of Butcher Bay to your advantage. As Riddick, you can jump, climb, shimmy across ledges or climb hand over hand to avoid guards or roaming prison gangs.
Arm yourself with an arsenal of vicious prison weapons, or gear up with the latest in riot and assault weaponry.
Bring the fight up close and personal with a variety of first-person melee moves.
Interact with a vast array of dynamic characters voiced by some of the top names in Hollywood, such as Vin Diesel (as Riddick).
