EA and Spicy Horse Pair up for a Return to Wonderland

None

If you haven’t played American McGee’s Alice (released in October 2000), then you’ll have a chance to get dropped back into the twisted world of Wonderland.

Taking place years after Lewis Carrol’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There, American McGee’s Alice “features an older, more cynical, and macabre incarnation of Alice.”

The sequel to the acclaimed, dark title will release for PC, PS3, and Xbox 360.  Expect masterful attention to detail, brooding characters, fantastic environments, and an eerie storyline.

“This new project is a dream come true for me and the fans who’ve kept the Alice flame alive,” said American McGee, senior creative director at Spicy Horse. “EA gave us creative latitude and support on the original game which resulted in something beautiful and daring.
