The freaky little girl’s back and she’s meaner than ever. Ladies and Gentlemen, F.E.A.R.: Project Origin has been announced. You can find the exclusive debut trailer from GameTrailers.com here.

Unlike the expansions FEAR: Extraction Point and the upcoming Perseus Mandate, Project Origin is planned to be a true sequel to the FEAR franchise. It’ll start approximately just before the ending of the first game and will be told from the viewpoint of a different character than the Pointman – right now it looks like a Delta Force member going by the name of Michael Beckett. The main story of the game, according to Monolith, is to focus on the central character of Alma – something which they intend to expand on with more sequels down the line. However, what is a fair bit more interesting than this, is the relation between Project Origin and that of Extraction Point, along with the fallout that’s happened between Vivendi and Monolith.
