Rumour: House of the Dead: Overkill 2 Inbound

One of the Wii's standout shooters – and certainly its most explicit – could be due a revival as reports hit that House of the Dead: Overkill 2 is in development.

Launched at the start of 2009, the original House of the Dead: Overkill was a tongue-in-cheek take on SEGA's long-running on-rails series that channelled the spirit of classic exploitation flicks, creating a game that's still near-unique on Nintendo's console.
