Rebellion confirms working on Shellshock Sequel
December 11th, 2007 - The UK-based computer games developer Rebellion confirmed today, nearly three years after originally being announced, it is working a sequel to Shellshock: 'Nam 67 from Eidos Interactive.
The development studio has confirmed that it's making the jump to Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 in 2008 with Shellshock 2 for Eidos Interactive.
Speaking to Gamesindustry.biz, Rebellion CEO Jason Kingsley commented: "It's very much a mature product, it's a bit like Jacob's Ladder or Apocalypse Now in movie terms. It's troubling - deliberately so - it's meant to be challenging the nature of war, the horror and why people do these horrific things to each other...It'll be our first next-gen title, which is slightly nervewracking, but it's looking absolutely lovely."
The original game, Shellshock: 'Nam 67, was released on PC, Xbox and PlayStation 2 in 2004 and developed by Guerrilla Games (Killzome), exceeded its expectations by selling around 800,000 retail copies.
More information coming soon.
