After the then-upcoming game, 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand was publicly dropped from Activision Blizzard’s release line-up and put up for sale, a lot of uncertainty hung in the air surrounding the title. After the game allegedly received age certifications in the UK and Australia, again supposedly under a THQ label, it was thought that the next 50 Cent game had been officially picked up.

That is indeed the case, as THQ officially confirm it will handle publishing duties for the gun and brawl action title, featuring the titular 50 Cent and his cronies. Vice president of global brand management at THQ, Brad Carraway said:

“50 Cent is a cultural icon and one of the biggest names in hip hop. THQ is thrilled to be working with him on this exciting new title. Combining intense single player combat, drop-in and drop-out online co-op and never-before-released music tracks makes this the ultimate package for gamers and hip hop fans alike.” 50 Cent himself continued the games’ appraisal:

”Blood on the Sand has non-stop action and exclusive music tracks from me and the G-Unit that you won’t find anywhere else. Plus our fans will be able to play together with online co-op, and maybe even join me or one of the G-Unit online.”

Great. Click through for a trailer from the game:
