PsychoToxic contaminating Whiptail Interactive
The Postal and Gangland publisher rescues NuclearVision's fantastical first-person shooter.
Nearly one year after it was dumped by CDV, PsychoToxic has found a new publisher. Whiptail Interactive has picked up the first-person PC shooter, which has been in development at NuclearVision since 2001.
The game's plot begins with Armageddon, which arrives in the year 2020. The fourth horseman of the apocalypse has arrived in New York City, and the only one standing in his way is the heroine Angie Prophet. She's actually half-woman, half-angel, but she doesn't know it at the outset. As she discovers her true origins, she'll gain six different supernatural powers, such as invisibility and the ability to slow the passage of time.
PsychoToxic is now set to ship in North America late in the first quarter of 2005 for the PC. Check out GameSpot's previous coverage for more on the game.
