Talks are in progress to develop a Hellboy game based on the 2004 film, according to a Guillermo Del Toro fansite.

Del Toro, who directed the movie, is said to have posted a message revealing that "A deal has been finalised with Konami for a Hellboy videogame based on the movie version of the characters and world.

"Expect new monsters, new villains (and the return of one of our favourite ones) and a new storyline."

Del Toro goes on to say that himself and Mike Mignola are "in discussions to come on board as consultants." Mignola is the creator of the Hellboy comics.
