Warner Bros. has announced that Alma is set to return this fall in F.E.A.R. 3( aka - F.3.A.R.), another paranormal horror first-person shooter that further evolves the best-selling franchise.
Of course the project's freak-out factor goes up by two as legendary horror director John Carpenter (Halloween, Village of the Damned) and critically acclaimed horror comic and script writer Steve Niles (30 Days of Night) signed on as consultants to enhance the game’s frightening aspects. Steve Niles co-wrote the game's script with the development team, while and John Carpenter provided his expertise in crafting the in-game cinematics.
This time Alma's sons Point Man and Paxton Fettel introduce divergent co-op, giving players distinctly different abilities affecting their own play as well as the experience of their co-op partner. Gamers participate in single player or co-op modes as Point Man, a genetically enhanced super soldier originally introduced in 'F.E.A.R.,' or they can play cooperatively as his conniving brother Paxton Fettel, whose incredible telekinetic power has given him life beyond the grave. The game is developed by Day 1 Studios, developer of the original F.E.A.R. console games in collaboration with Monolith Studios.
“Monolith Productions has passed the torch to Day 1 Studios to create a quality, powerful game that stays true to the roots of the F.E.A.R. franchise but takes players to a heightened level of gameplay.” said Martin Tremblay, President, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment.
“After working closely with Monolith, Day 1 is honored to bring the next iteration of the F.E.A.R. franchise to gamers with key elements of the past games yet providing fresh combat and horror experiences in F.E.A.R. 3,” said Denny Thorley, Founder and President, Day 1 Studios. “Players can look forward to new features such as divergent co-op, an evolved cover system, and more scares in F.E.A.R. 3.”!
F.E.A.R. 3 is set to launch in Fall 2010, on PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system, the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft and Windows™ PC.
