Lost Planet 3 has been developed by Spark Unlimited rather than Capcom as with the previous 2. Spark unlimited produced Call of Duty: Finest Hour but their track record is marred by games such as Legendary and Turning Point.
The new game features the new main character Jim Peyton ( a rig pilot for the company NEVEC) who encounters the snow pirates after falling through the ice.
