Porting house Westlake Interactive recently updated their project status page. Besides updates to several currently in development titles, a new project with the codename "Russell" has been added. Speculation on the title's true name has already begun in IMG's forums, though of course nothing is concrete.

As far as existing titles go, Halo has been bumped up to Pre-Alpha status, project Renee is in Alpha, and Star Trek: Elite Force II is now at the Pre-final Candidate stage. As reported earlier, Zoo Tycoon is now available for purchase in stores.

It was also announced yesterday by MacSoft that Westlake has been working on Age of Mythology and should have the game ready for release in October.

Stay tuned to IMG for the latest on all of Westlake's projects, both revealed and secret.
