With all so very quiet on the western front of late, it seemed like maybe we'd heard the last of Fenimore Fillmore. But never count out a gunfighter, as today there's welcomes news from Nobilis, who announced that it will be publishing Fenimore Fillmore: Revenge throughout Europe in September.

The third game in the Revistronic's comic western saga, following 3 Skulls of the Toltecs and The Westerner (or Wanted), Revenge once again follows the exploits of unlikely cowboy Fenimore Fillmore. Along for the ride this time is the beautiful Rhiannon, whom players will control as a second playable character. In their new adventure, the two discover a wounded man who tells them of a buried secret treasure. Unfortunately for them, others are also after the treasure, and when Rhiannon is kidnapped by bandits, the race for the treasure becomes becomes personal.

The new game features a more realistic 3D art style than the cartoon-like earlier games, but Revenge still promises to be a "humoristic western adventure" with (and brace yourself for those who played the last game) "a lot of bandits to shoot at."
