I only say “announced” with quotes because D3 hasn’t actually announced it- they’ve just announced their own rumor. Confused? Just try to follow along.

D3Publisher put out a press release today to put out their own rumor. Though it’s not an official confirmation, they pretty much said “Hey, did you hear about the classic Matt Hazard coming to XBLA and PSN?” The game will likely act as a supplement, if not just a (possibly) free advergame, for Eat Lead: The Return of Matt Hazard.

For those of you not familiar with Matt Hazard, the developers have created a pretty big history through Matt Hazard’s viral marketing, all of which is pretty interesting if you follow it well. My description can’t do it justice, but all of the history behind Matt Hazard is just as awesome as the trailer and gameplay we’ve seen so far. After the jump is the other image Destructoid recieved with the press release to promote the ‘classic’ Matt Hazard game.
