Eidos parent company SCi has been sitting on a Highlander license since September 2004 and it's taken it nearly three years to finally unveil its first Highlander title (under the Eidos brand).
Highlander will be a third-person action-adventure that finds you strapping on boots as an Immortal who is battling rival Immortals through the ages.
It's not mentioned if it will actually be Connor MacLeod/Nash who we'll be playing, but Eidos does say that the game features 77 characters, some familiar from the movies and TV series, some new.

"I’d like to see some dead games come back to life…games that never were, that should have been this generation, that when revived for next gen consoles would re-animate into a new life with even better improvements.
These are the Top 10 games I’d like to see revived at E3 2013 for the next gen. Do you think Xbox One and PS4 or Wii U should have any of these games?"
EA would be crazy not to make this game. Even if it was horrible (which hopefully it wouldn't be) it would sell!
I want Square Enix to bring back Chrono Cross. Since Hudson merged with Konami they have enough funds to resurrect Bloody Roar 5 back from the dead, I would want to see that. And Capcom needs to bring back Darkstalkers and give it a modern day makeover.
Every year, we as gamers are practically flooded for choice, with games of all genres knocking on our consoles, provided that we can afford them all of course.
But while a ton of games hit the market every month, even more get cancelled and thrown into the oblivion bin, never to see the light of day.
There’s quite a few such titles that don’t make the cut every year, games which sound fantastic, but will be thrown away quicker than a new years resolution.
Today, we’re going to take a look at the Highlander game that never was, a game that would have been a current-gen tale of the immortals, told over thousands of years.
But in the end, there could be only none.

It’s usually bаd news bears fοr thе fate οf a particular game whеn wе gο nearly three years without hearing ѕο much аѕ a peep аbουt іt frοm іtѕ creators — hence ουr general lack οf surprise аt Square Enix’s recent revelation thаt Highlander: Thе Game‘s development hаѕ bееn halted.
Im guessing UE3?
but I've always thought that a Highlander MMO would be a good idea. It would probably be better suited for consoles though, because it would obviously be more twitchy and action oriented than traditional MMO's.
Anyway, good to know that some kind of Highlander game is coming out.
and this wont be it.....
Any one seen the new highlander anime, from the clips i saw it looked awsome.
This game will probably be a steaming pile, but I'll keep track of it just to see.
