Warner Bros. Interactive announced the paranormal horror title today, revealing super solider Point Man and telepath Paxton Fettel from the original F.E.A.R. are back, and this time they're working together. F.E.A.R. 3 will feature single player and co-op modes, allowing gamers to take on the supernatural with a friend.
"Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment is evolving the F.E.A.R. brand with top horror, co-op and first person shooter combat in F.E.A.R. 3," Martin Tremblay, president of Warner Bros. Interactive, said in a statement. "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."
Helping create that heightened level are Carpenter and Niles. Carpenter directed the title's in-game cinematics and Niles co-write the script.
F.E.A.R. 3 launches on the Xbox 360, Playstation 3, and Windows PC this fall.
Sharkey says: It will be interesting to see how co-op play, with one player as solider and the other as telepath, enhances the F.E.A.R experience. And I'm psyched to see what Carpenter does with the cinematics. He's certainly had his duds over the years, but Halloween, Escape From New York, The Thing, Big Trouble in Little China, Prince of Darkness, and They Live are all classics in my book.
