Visceral’s newly-revealed Jack the Ripper game will put players in Jack’s shoes, according to Destructoid sources.

But slow down there, horsey. You may think of Mr Ripper as a medically-skilled whore-killer. Not so. Apparently, he’s a supernatural force for good. Who knew?

If that piece is correct, Jack spends his time protecting people from demons, vampires and such. OTT weapons and a time-slowing ability are being mooted.

Which is great, but we really were looking forward to getting stuck into some hookers with a bagful of surgical equipment. As were you all, right guys? Guys?

No date. The game hasn’t even been announced yet.

Visceral’s third project is a Jack the Ripper game, according to the LA Times.

Citing “two sources close to EA,” the LAT points out that the use of historical material will give the developer free reign in a similar vein to Dante’s Inferno.

There’s no other detail through there. With Dante hitting early next year and Dead Space 2 also in the works, it’s unlikely you’re going to be seeing this for a while yet.
