Rambo Coming Out Of Gaming Retirement
It's been a few decades since we've seen John Rambo on consoles, but that could be changing soon. It seems as though our hero is ready to put on his red bandanna, pop off his top, and lay waste to legions of bad guys thanks to a deal with UK publisher Reef Entertainment.
The company, whose past games include the Wii games Sniper Elite and Rogue Trooper: Quartz Zone Massacre, has made a deal that would bring Sylvester Stallone's Cold War icon to the Xbox 360, PS3, and PC.
“I am a big fan of Sylvester Stallone movies, and when we had the opportunity to secure the video game rights from StudioCanal for the Rambo franchise, we had to grab it with both hands,” said Reef Entertainment CEO Peter Rezon.
There's no word on when – or if – the game will be invading our shores, but Reef's commercial director Craig Lewis is promising a triple-A game that "will capture the gritty atmosphere and full-on action which made the Rambo movies so successful.”
