American McGee has described how Alice: Madness Returns will evolve the narrative of Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland even further

The game will see Alice follow a similar path to that of Neo in the Matrix - according to the developer.

“Where the first game was the signalling of us branching off from the main story of Alice In Wonderland, as the second game it’s really important to us that we establish her as a sort of superhero character – a master of this mental domain, separate from what people know from the books,” McGee told NowGamer.

“Pushing it beyond that is very important in helping the audience understand that this is about Alice’s mind, and her as a superhero within her own mind.”

Despite some impressive preview screens (see below) McGee also pointed out that the sophistication of the mechanics in Alice: Madness Returns will evolve in line with recent titles.

“As gamers are getting older and becoming more selective about what it is that they spend their time doing, they’re also looking for something that transcends a button-mashing experience,” he says. “You want to be engaged, and it’s not enough any more to be impressed by what [a game] did graphically or what it did technically.”

The brief teaser trailer from EA's studio showcase a few months ago left us eager to see more of Alice: Madness Returns, the sequel to American McGee's take on Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland. At EA's Tokyo showcase in Shinjuku, Japan, American McGee revealed another tantalizing trailer, and we were able to get a first look at the game. While it was strictly a hands-off demo, we did see our heroine, Alice, in her signature blue and white dress slash her way through all kinds of demented creatures.

The trailer showed Alice in Victorian London, pale and gaunt, shivering as she walks down the deserted street. She is drawn toward a display of marionettes where she sees some familiar characters having tea. Her dead parents suddenly appear in the reflection, standing solemnly in front of a fountain that is now spilling blood. Before we know it, the display bursts into flames, and she's yanked into the inferno by a swarm of tentacles. This sets us up for the demo, which places Alice in the Vale of Tears, a beautiful landscape with floating islands, discarded dominoes, and extra-large mushrooms to jump across. This area highlighted the platforming aspect of the game, and we see that Alice can leap as well as double jump to higher ground.

In the next area, Alice comes across a hovering purple potion labeled "drink me" that pours an endless amount of fluid into a lake. She drinks this, of course, which then causes her to shrink, giving her access to new areas as well as the ability to see messages scrawled on the walls. During EA's presentation, McGee said that in this world, Alice is an idealized version of herself. A more beautiful, stronger, and more confident woman who is able to defend herself physically and mentally. As distorted as everything is already, she brings her own madness into the world, so as her surroundings begin to degenerate, her sanity starts to go as well.

Alice is given some new weapons to help her on her journey into madness. Other than brandishing her deadly vorpal blade, she can now wield a pepper grinder like a machine gun. This allows her to fire a stream of deadly bullets of some kind, while keeping a safe distance. McGee mentioned that each enemy is like a puzzle, and the only way to destroy them is to find their weakness and exploit it. You're also given a hobby horse and a teapot at some point, but it looks like we're going to have to wait to see how they work in battle.

Like in the previous game, there is a mix of exploration and platforming along with the combat, where you may need to hit switches to reveal a path to the next area. The game is linear, so there's no chance of getting lost, but you will need to wander off the beaten path of hidden objects and collectibles.

What made the first Alice so appealing was the gorgeous, dark art style, and that has continued in Madness Returns. Familiar creatures return, like the china-doll-faced nightmare spiders as well as the Cheshire Cat and the Mad Hatter. New characters will make their way in this bizarre world, so it'll be interesting to see who we'll run into. We're looking forward to being able to play the game, as this demo was for our eyes only, and the build was still in pre-alpha. Stay tuned to GameSpot for more information as soon as it becomes available. Alice: Madness Returns is set to come out in 2011 on the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC.

She’s back. Alice is Onto Another Twisted Adventure in Wonderland.

American McGee has a lot of guts digging up a ten year old PC series that saw only one game and making a sequel for the modern market. Perhaps the odd combination of platforming and combat that made Alice such a cult favourite ten years ago will make Alice: Madness Returns for the PS3 a hit in this mash-up age of genre remixing.

Modern PlayStation users may not have ever heard of American McGee’s Alice, a Quake III engine powered platformer/action game hybrid that developed a strong base of vocal fans and according to McGee at least, still continues to sell an impressive number of copies each year for a decade old game. However, Madness Returns is aiming to please both fans of the original and newcomers.

We were on hand in Tokyo when McGee debuted his hands-off demo of the game. We watched Alice jump and platform her way around the Mad Hatter’s domain and the Veil of Tears, cutting any enemy that got in her way with her Vorpal blade. The platforming elements from the original game seem to have survived to the present day intact, but the combat has been spruced up to suit modern tastes. Playing like a twisted version of Zelda or Okami, each enemy can only be taken down by following a specific strategy.

What’s more, each stage of the game will be filled with new baddies. As soon as you’ve had your fill with the monsters in the realm of the Mad Hatter, you’ll be on to face a new set in a different level and you’ll never see any of the Hatter’s minions for the rest of the game.

Modern tech has allowed McGee and his team to make the art even more grotesque and unnerving, and the game looks great even in its current pre-alpha state. At its core Alice Madness Returns looks like it may very well live up to the legacy of its predecessor and ease new fans into McGee’s odd take on Wonderland.

Alice: Madness Returns costará 15 millones de dólares y está siendo desarrollado en China

American McGee, el popular creativo responsable del prometedor Alice: Madness Returns y del original, American McGee's Alice, ha hablado con el canal de noticias Bloomberg sobre los entresijos de la producción de la esperada segunda parte.

"La principal razón por la que fui a China tuvo que ver con el hecho de que hace seis años vi que el modelo de negocio de occidente y los modelos de distribución estaban empezando a romperse y a no funcionar correctamente", aseguró McGee, que fundó Spicy Horse, el estudio que gestiona desde oriente, en 2006.

"Quería ir a China para ganar acceso a lo que pasa en la producción de los videojuegos y en su monetización", comentó el creativo, adelantando que ampliará la plantilla del estudio de 80 personas a 160 durante el próximo año y medio, y que el juego costará "la mitad de los 30 millones de dólares que un proyecto de estas características costaría desarrollar en Estados Unidos".

Plataforma: PC, Xbox 360 y PS3
Lanzamiento: 2º trimestre de 2011

Espero que este juego sea tan bueno como el primero, y por lo que aparece por los trailers, así va a ser.
