Console Monster writes: "We have just added the Achievements for WET on the Xbox 360. Bethesda's new title has been fairly quiet recently, despite the title receiving multiple delays.

The achievements confirm the game will contain twelve chapters, available to play on the four difficulties: Cake Walk (Easy), Hired Gun (Normal), Fixer (Hard) and Femme Fatale (Ultra Hard). Quite surprisingly, the story mode has a fifth difficulty, called "Golden Bullets," though with a reward of 30 GamerScore, it doesn't appear to be an Ultra Ultra Hard difficulty. Instead, it appears to be timed.

The achievements also confirm players will be collecting monkey toys, purchasing upgrades, earning medals in Boneyard Challenges and killing enemies with an array of weapons.

The game is due to release in September.

The list contains 43 achievements worth 1000 GamerScore..."

SonYou had the chance to interview the creative director Patrick Fortier of WET during a presentation of the game at Amsterdam's Jimmy Woo club.

On the question if there are plans to release DLC for WET, Fortier responded:

"No, there are no plans for DLC. We have decided that we should put our efforts in the game itself and try to make it the best experience possible."

Fortier also said "I believe that spreading games (and content) via internet is the future, but the real disc will never dissapear. Even though the internet has many advantages, people will always want to have something they can touch."

After Vivendi's game division merged with Activision last year a lot of titles got cut by Activision. Among those titles was the action packed shooter WET from developer A2M. During an interview with Dutch website Gaming Only at an event for the game in Amsterdam today, the game's Creative Director Patrick Fortier, told a different story. He says that after they heard that Activision would not be publishing all of Vivendi's titles, A2M took matters into their own hand and bought back all the rights from Vivendi. Fortier said "we (A2M) did not have enough faith that WET would be at the right place with Activision". He also added that they did not want to wait to find out if the game was still going to be published by Activision or if it would be dropped.

When talking about new publisher Bethesda Fortier said "we are really happy with Bethesda Softworks, they haven't limited us in any way". During the time WET did not have a publisher A2M had several parties that were interested in publishing WET. They chose Bethesda, because they felt best at home with them according to Frontier.

"It ties 3 different styles of gameplay into the mechanics of the whole game. Swordplay, acrobatics and 360 degree slip-aiming mechanics which should have some gamers not knowing which game they are playing at times. Is it a 3rd person shooter, a Tomb Raider off-shoot, or a Ninja Gaiden spin-off.

Read on for the latest news just in from Bethesda. Six new screens and full details after the jump…"

The last casualty of the Activision Blizzard merger is Wet. A2M's stylish shooting game was announced last year, then went dark after Activision Blizzard dropped many Sierra properties.

However, Wet is far from dead. A new trailer spontaneously surfaced with little fanfare a few weeks ago. A2M is still working on the game, but who is publishing it? Sharp commenter NickyD (thanks!!) pointed me in the direction of Famitsu. That's right, we're getting news about a Western developed game from a Japanese magazine. *Looks outside, checks for a blue moon.*

The Website for Wet, a new action game from Artificial Mind & Movement is down and has been down for at least two days according to Google's cache of the website. Wet, for release on the PS3 and 360, is a game featuring Muscle-for-hire Ruby, a so-called "problem fixer" who gets double-crossed by her latest client which causes her to unleash her fury across three continents to find the man who left her for dead. No news or explanation for the site's downtime is given on Artificial Mind & Movement's website, leaving one to speculate on weather it is being updated for E3 or fundamental adjustments to the website, changes to the character, or storyline alterations are underway. Only the words "In construction" in French and English along with the sphincter-like logo with the initials A2M below remains; which could leave one with a slightly tainted sense of humor a little giggly.

There have been rumors on the web that a UK game retailer is only showing PS3 cover art for Sierra's hotly anticipated title Wet and therefore it will no longer be available for the Xbox 360. Today, the Bitbag received an e-mail confirmation from Sierra/Vivendi that Wet will not be a PS3 exclusive title. We put a little more confidence in this response than prior "we can neither confirm or deny" statements we have heard from other publishers in the past.
