The darkness
Action from StarBreeze Studios - creators of Chronicles of Riddick: Escape From Butcher Bay (Xbox, PC) and Enclave (Xbox, PC, GC). A game based on comics, and knowing Starbreezes, it will be a masterpiece. It used to be exclusive to Xbox360, and now it is a multi-platform for both PS3 and Xbox360. The PC version has yet to be announced.Preview and shots here.

Looks like a cross between FEAR, Chronicles of Riddick and SWAT 4.
The main character (I haven't read the comics, but judging by the shots and the video ...) is a half-man, half-demon. Two giant snakes grow from under his clothes.

I liked the game. Graphically very reminiscent of Prey, as well as D3. The same wild distortion of perspective at the edges of the image, medium texture resolution with very competently built models and great lighting. Great environment design. In general, the game gives the impression of a well-staged blockbuster with a solid budget.
A new, truly powerful game from Starbreeze.
However, they did not bother and work on the concept for a second, everything migrated from The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape From Butcher Bay, the engine, physics, gameplay, composer.
The immediate differences are the setting and the dark forces.
All this is intertwined with a fairly high-quality storyline and spiced with brutal cinematography in the style of The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape From Butcher Bay.
Overall, the game is even more atmospheric than Riddick, amazingly cinematic and playable in the same breath.
The only drawback, if it can be called a drawback, is that the game leaves the game precisely due to the ideas and developments of The Chronicles of Riddick.
Damn, how to get to Janie then? I can't even find it ...
