Development
The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena was originally announced on May 22, 2007 as a remake of Escape from Butcher Bay with Assault on Dark Athena serving as a "bonus chapter". On July 29, 2008, Activision Blizzard had announced that The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena along with eight other games in development had been dropped by Activision Blizzard, putting the future of the game into question. However, on September 24, 2008, StarBreeze Studios confirmed that The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena was nearing completion and were in the process of looking for a publisher to publish the game. In October 2008 Atari announced they would publish Riddick.
While the fate of Riddick was up in the air, Starbreeze reportedly kept working, and generated enough content by December 2008 to make Dark Athena, for all intents and purposes, a sequel to their earlier work.
