Rambo Game in Development

UK publisher Reef Entertainment has confirmed they are to bring a "Triple A" Rambo game for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC in 2012.

According to MCV, Reef are believed to have secured the game rights of Rambo from StudioCanal amidst competition from other publishers. Reef said on the game:

Rambo will be a triple-A title on PS3, Xbox 360 and PC and will capture the gritty atmosphere and full-on action which made the Rambo movies so successful.

Reef Entertainment CEO Peter Rezon added:

I am a big fan of Sylvester Stallone movies, and when we had the opportunity to secure the video game rights from StudioCanal for the Rambo franchise, we had to grab it with both hands.

With the success of the most recent Rambo film, and an international appetite for action movies with Expendables 2 scheduled for release next summer, we felt now was a good time to do something special with this licence.

Craig Lewis, Reef's commercial director, also stated:

We have big ambitions for Reef and the Rambo IP is the first step in establishing us as a worldwide player.
