Zoo Entertainment has announced Wanted Corp, a top down shooter set in the aftermath of an interstellar prison break. As a tough as nails bounty hunter (complete with tiresome wisecracks), you’ll be blasting your way through four separate campaigns in an attempt to bring some of the galaxy’s most notorious criminals to justice.

The game will feature two playable characters. In a rather obvious nod to real life bounty hunter (and reality television star) Duane ‘Dog’ Chapman, one of them will be named Maddog. You’ll be able to switch between this heavy weapons expert and his psychic partner Zimoy at any time. Online and splitscreen co-op will also be available.

According to a somewhat poorly worded slogan in the trailer, you’ll have the opportunity to “explore, arrest and shoot” your foes. Yes, gunning down suspects after you have them in custody sounds a little extreme, but at least it’s in keeping with the policies of the Victoria Police.

Wanted Corp is scheduled to arrive on PC and PSN in winter 2011, with the latter boasting PlayStation Move compatibility.
