Mad Catz Announces ThunderHawk Studios

Mad Catz has announced the formation of ThunderHawk Studios. This new studio will develop a series of flight simulation MMOs which will make especially-good use of the Saitek line of Pro Flight peripherals.

“The addition of flight simulation games should leverage the market share leadership and global distribution enjoyed by our flight simulation hardware products,” said Darren Richardson, the President and Chief Executive Officer of Mad Catz Interactive, Inc. “The formation of ThunderHawk Studios is an important milestone as we pursue our longer term goal of expanding our participation in developing, publishing and distributing games.”

METRO: Last Light Unveiled with First Trailer

THQ has pulled the wraps off of its upcoming sequel to METRO: 2033, METRO: Last Light. In fact, not only do we have details about the game but we also have its first trailer, so enjoy! METRO: Last Light will be set after the events of the original game and will see the remnants of humanity fighting it out above and below post-apocalyptic Moscow for control of a doomsday weapon. The game is being developed for the Windows PC, Xbox 360, and PlayStation 3 platforms and is due out in 2012.

“We believe that Metro 2033 was a flawed masterpiece,” said Danny Bilson, EVP Core Games, THQ. “It was a beautiful, original game that didn’t get the marketing support it needed. We won’t make that mistake with Metro: Last Light. This game improves on the original in every way – it will have more polish, deeper and more sophisticated gameplay, and satisfyingly visceral combat, without losing what our fans loved about the original. Metro: Last Light is another artful piece of game development from an Eastern European studio that will thrill and terrify anyone looking for a more cerebral experience than your typical first person shooter.”
