We’ll have an interview and impressions for you on Monday.

American McGee’s Alice to be reborn

alice2

EA and American McGee are to release a follow-on title to Alice. This is pretty awesome news, popstars.

It’s in development for PC, PS3 and 360.

“This new project is a dream come true for me and the fans who’ve kept the Alice flame alive,” said McGee.

“EA gave us creative latitude and support on the original game which resulted in something beautiful and daring. This trip through the looking glass promises to be even more exciting.”

The original was released in 2000, and was subject of probably the greatest Old Man Murray review of all time. Old skool, right here.

Press release after the break.
