A new chapter in the Riddick chronicles from Atari is Assault on Dark Athena. Coming with definitely a previus game, with a brand-new story and multiplayer mode, as well a remade version of 2004's Escape from Butcher Bay as a bonus.
The new chapters will continues the story from Escape from Butcher Bay, with Riddick and the bounty hunter Johns in cryostasis, drifting through space. Their ship is eventually picked up by a pirate vessel (titular Dark Athena) and though Riddick manages to wake up in time, Johns' pod is infiltrated and he is taken prisoner. Hiding in the shadows, Riddick steals the captain's hairpin and is soon scouting the ship with nothing but the darkness and the hairpin as his weapons.
One of many new feature is, Riddick can now pick up dead bodies and manipulate them to fire. This is useful in a firefight. Atari also promises that Dark Athena will be much more focused on gunplay than Butcher Bay.
The visual game show excellent lighting and character modelling, particularly for main character, Vin Diesel's Riddick. So far we seen, the new chapter offers all of the elements that made the first game so amazing and enjoyable with new combat element.
