All aboard the hype express, Serious Sam 4: Planet Badass been announced by Croteam. Right now we have no further information other than it will be bigger and presumably more badass than the other games in the series so far. We will have more at E3 in June but for now, at least we know it’s coming.

The previous games in the series have all been pretty badass as it is but the bigger game can be a cause for concern. Bigger is not always better if you have no idea what you’re doing. But Croteam has assured its fans that it will still feel like the rest of the franchise. The same meaning a shooter with horrible looking monsters that look even more horrible once you’ve gotten through with them.

Oh, and did I mention there’s a teaser trailer? It came along with the announcement and from little there is, Croteam seams to be keeping its promise. In the trailer we see Sam riding a motorcycle through a lush, green setting. It would feel peaceful and happy if this weren’t a Serious Sam game. And then the inevitable happens. A headless creature that looks like it’s holding bombs (headsmen) comes running toward the motorcycle which Sam explodes with a single shot. And the camera pans out and there’s a horde of what looks like the same type of creature. Thankfully everything looks the way it should.

It’s unclear which platforms this installment is going to be released on. The series started on PC but others have been released on consoles in the past. Perhaps we shall see when E3 comes rolling around.
