Hit Monkey revealed

High Moon and Activision have joined forces with Marvel and are working on a {Hit Monkey} game. We know this because there's a new website for the title.

The teaser image reveals little, other than a likely 2013 launch and the tagline "$#*! just got bananas."

{Hit Monkey} is one of those games that does exactly what it says on the tin. A Macaque learns his trade through watching an assassin train for an inevitable battle. When the battle eventually comes the assassin, and all of {Hit Monkey}'s Macaque friends, are killed. It's a this point that our primate protagonist goes on a rip-roaring rampage of revenge, using his new found skills to take down his enemies.

{Hit Monkey} is being made by Transformers dev High Noon, and given their recent track record we can hope for a polished and accomplished game when it launches sometime next year.
