Quantcast



Hudson's bringing our boy Bonk back next year, in a new title called Bonk: Brink of Extinction.

While we can guess it's a platformer, you wouldn't be able to tell from this new trailer which shows absolutely no gameplay whatsoever. Instead, Bonk tries to start a fire to warm his hands before a meteor hits the Earth. That's where the "extinction" comes in. Get it?

Brink of Extinction is slated to hit every console's digital distribution platform of choice -- Xbox LIVE Arcade for Xbox 360, PlayStation Network for PlayStation 3, and WiiWare for Wii. We're looking forward to seeing more than just a CG trailer soon; in the meantime, we'll be smashing our heads against things in preparation.

Never played a Bonk title, so I'm looking forward to this. Plus i haven't had some 2-D platforming goodness in a long time :)

I understand this is probably a lower budget title, but that CG is awful... I think I'd prefer some other vehicle for cutscenes, please.

But Bonk games aren't about their epic storytelling, so I'll wait until I see some of that tried-and-true gameplay.

Bonk's so rad, I bet he just headbutted the meteor back to where it came from. Game over.
