Fans of the original Rune have reason to rejoice, as developer Human Head Studios has finally announced a sequel titled Rune: Ragnarok, a full 17 years after the release of the cult classic.
Human Head Studios' Ted Halsted revealed some information about the developer's plans for a revival of Rune, the 2000 released third person Viking themed action game.
A new rumor claims that Human Head Studios has not been developing the first person shooter Prey 2 for several months due to a contract dispute with publisher Bethesda Softworks.
Bethesda Softworks has now said the upcoming first person shooter Prey 2 has not been cancelled but also won't be released in 2012. The company won't comment on if Human Head is still making the game.
The official Facebook page for the classic action game Rune has been teasing its readers with a note that the company is "considering" developing a new game in the series.
Human Head Studios gave QuakeCon 2011 attendees a quick glimpse at Prey 2, the upcoming sequel to its sci-fi first person shooter.
