We asked, and THQ listened. The publisher announced today that it's bringing The Haunted: Hell's Reach to PC later this year, and to Xbox Live Arcade and PlayStation Network in early 2012. A quick refresher for those who may have forgotten: The Haunted won last year's Make Something Unreal contest and features a blend of third-person action, cooperative play and a lot of demon-blasting goodness.
The Haunted: Hell's Reach will arrive on PC via retail and download this October for $20.
