The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena is a science fiction first-person action game for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and Microsoft Windows.[3] The game is a sequel to The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay, which has been remade and will be included along with the Assault on Dark Athena campaign.[4] The game was released on April 7, 2009. A demo was released on Xbox Live on March 4, 2009, with a PlayStation Network release following on March 12, 2009.[5]

The game is being developed by Starbreeze Studios and will be published by Atari. According to Ian Stevens, Head of Production at Tigon, the decision to do a remake was because Microsoft could not make the Xbox 360 backward compatible with Escape from Butcher Bay, and because they wanted to get the Escape story to a larger audience before progressing further.[6]

Dark Athena is expected to have improved graphics and AI from Escape along with the addition of a multiplayer mode. The single player mode will also be expanded to include Riddick escaping onto a mercenary ship called Dark Athena.

Vin Diesel, the voice and likeness of the title character, is involved in the production of Assault on Dark Athena.
