The Chronicles of Riddick™: Escape from Butcher Bay is set before the events of both Universal Pictures’ upcoming summer release, The Chronicles of Riddick, starring Vin Diesel, and the 2000 breakout hit Pitch Black, which first introduced Diesel as enigmatic anti-hero Riddick. The game tells the story of Riddick’s dramatic escape from the previously inescapable triple-max security slam Butcher Bay, home to the most violent prisoners in the galaxy.
