GameSpot AU have scored interviews with Krome Studios on the newest Hellboy game, Hellboy: The Science of Evil.

This latest installment finds Hellboy chasing after a crazed witch. The story is split up in chapters and smaller story arcs which contribute to the greater story arc, which ultimately leads him to a climactic confrontation with Hermann Von Klempt.
 
The creators, wanting to stay true to the spirit of Hellboy, dives headfirst into the challenge of translating the game into the different consoles.  Although the PSP will be substituting 2D animation for the sequences that will be found on the consoles, the main story will be the same across all the consoles. And according to Rich Foster, "both the console and handheld versions involve a decent amount of face punching and hitting bad guys with large objects."  Bad guys with face full of stone fist.  Rock.

Liz Sherman and Abe Sapien will be playable characters. Liz will of course remain the hot pyrokinetic we all love her to be, and Abe will be kicking ass with his "fantastic array of martial arts moves and pulls off incredibly fast combos and strikes."  Both interviews mention a special appearance, but both also refuse to go any further on the topic. Such a tease.

HellBoy: The Science of Evil, will be released on the Xbox 360, the PS3 and the PSP. The game will feature co-op and multiplayer options available for online or split-screen gameplay. It is currently in its beta version and projected to be released by the end of the year. Blu-Ray capabilities will feature bonuses like behind the scenes footage and interviews with Mike Mignola, Guillermo del Toro, Ron Perlman.

A sequel to the movie was also mentioned, and projected to be released by mid-2008.
