3DO's Four Horsemen Not Quite Dead Yet

Thanks to IGN PS2 for its article discussing the seeming resurrection of 3DO's Four Horseman Of The Apocalypse, the PlayStation 2 "action-horror title" whose fate was unknown following 3DO's bankruptcy auction last year. Apparently, "After 3DO shut down, a number of investors founded a company called Four Horsemen Entertainment L.L.C. in order to purchase the property. The company officially obtained it on May 12, and development has resumed." According to creator Michael Mendheim: "The new company will begin by releasing comic books and a graphic novel based on the [Simon Bisley character-designed] property, and eventually release a completely revamped version of the video game for next-generation systems."

    The lost 3DO game will be retitled: Armymen: Sarge and the 4 Horsemen of the Apocolypse. Sequels are expected to follow and plans to port the game to everything from the X-Box, Gameboy, and Wonderswan color, to a pair of light equiped boxer shorts are in the works. Profits are expected to shatter the previous record held by the popular "Armymen" franchise, a total of about 63 cents as of june 10th 2004
