A nice surprise to start off the day, a demo for Starbreeze Studios’ Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena has hit Xbox LIVE today.
The 639 MB demo lets you play the Athena Main Decks level, which takes place during the first portion of the game. You’ll get the opportunity to control a drone (seen above), which Riddick can pull in close to use its gun to take out enemies, and its body for cover. Of course, the demo is for Gold members only, so pony up if you want to play.
Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena ships on April 7 for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. If you’re interested in learning more, on the Destructoid forums check out my extremely information “Q & A” and impressions thread based on an early build Atari sent us. Or our even earlier preview. We’re giving you options, see?
