Steve Purcell's wise-cracking anthropomorphic crime-fighting duo Sam & Max will be making their long-awaited return to the world of video games in Sam & Max: This Time It's Virtual, a new VR adventure from developer HappyGiant.
There's not, admittedly, a whole lot more to report just yet, but it's been over a decade since the release of the dog and homicidal bunny's last video game outing - Telltale Games' Sam & Max: The Devil's Playhouse - so even this teeniest morsel of news is likely to bring a tear to the eyes of fans patiently waiting the return of Purcell's Freelance Police.
The brief teaser trailer accompanying today's news tells us, "In a world gone strange, one elite force stands against the darkness", before reintroducing Sam & Max by way of a gunfight against what I'm only tentatively going to call an octo-hydra.
