50 Cent is once again in videogame form via the upcoming release "50 Cent: Blood on the Sand," a follow-up to the 2005 release "50 Cent: Bulletproof" - which was tied to his starring role in the film "Get Rich or Die Tryin'."
Due this fall from Vivendi Games' Sierra label, "Blood" calls on players to control 50 Cent and, in a co-op option for those who want to play together, other members of his crew in an all out battle to protect the rap star's assets and to collect payment from a crooked overlord.
G Unit members Lloyd Banks, Tony Yayo and DJ Whoo Kid are all providing likeness rights and voiceover work. 50 and G Unit will also contribute new music for the game, as well as existing tracks.
"We are taking this sequel to the next level with exciting combat and gunplay, new original music, great graphics and a new story," said 50 in a statement. "50 Cent: Blood on the Sand will have everything my fans are looking for in a 50 Cent game."
50's deal with Sierra for "Bulletproof" gave the company an option to greenlight a sequel. The rapper has been providing input on the follow-up, which unlike the first title won't exclusively take place in an inner-city environment.
Variety reports that "Blood" will likely be released by Activision, which is in the process of merging with Vivendi and will handle all Sierra games once the deal is complete. However Vivendi is not allowed to talk to Activision until the merger is finalized, which is expected to happen by June.
