PS3/Vita RPG Ruin sees a name change, now Warrior’s Lair

Upcoming PS3/Vita RPGRuinhas, apparently, undergone a name change. It is now being referred to asWarrior’s Lair, a decidedly generic moniker ofRenegade Opsproportions. WhileRuinwas definitely a more unique title, there’s probably some good business sense behind this; the upside to generic RPG names is that you know exactly what you’re getting. It could also be that, with the 3DS gettingHeroes of Ruinsometime this spring, they wanted to avoid brand confusion. Regardless, I want it; we just need a release date....

While this year’sGravelfeatured traditional cars, trucks, and other four-wheeled vehicles, the bread and butter of the studio’s output for the past decade plus has been motorcycles. Each year, Milestone releases new entries in its long-runningMotoGPandMXGPfranchises, and TheMonster Energy Supercrossseries that launched earlier this year will be another yearly product....
