00018e previewQuelques jours après les premiers scans (qui déchirent bien), Take Two, via sa filiale 2K Games, se décide à annoncer officiellement l’existence de Prey. Produit par 3D Realms, développé par Human Head Studios, le jeu utilisera une « version améliorée » du DOOM 3 Engine d’id Software.

Cette annonce officielle (on trouvera l’intégralité du communiqué de presse ci-après) contient tout de même trois infos :

  • le jeu sera bien présenté à l’E3, sur le stand d’ATi
  • Prey sortira sur PC et « une console de prochaine génération » (la Xbox 360 ?)
  • Prey ne sortira pas cette année, mais en 2006, sans plus de précision.
