The Thing is a third person survival horror video game developed by Computer Artworks and published under the Black Label Games banner, a collaboration between Universal Interactive (later Vivendi Games) and Konami.
It was released in North America for the PlayStation 2 on August 19, 2002, on the PC on August 20, 2002 and on the Xbox on September 9, 2002.
It is a sequel to John Carpenter's 1982 film The Thing.
The game begins at U.S. Outpost 31 in Antarctica, several days after the events of the original film.
A team of U.S. special forces have arrived to investigate both the U.S. camp and the nearby Norwegian camp.
The player controls the character of Captain J.F. Blake (Per Solli), a member of Beta Team, who are investigating the U.S. camp, whilst Alpha Team investigate the Norwegian camp.
Beta Team soon discover the small spacecraft made by the Blair-Thing in the film and the tape recorder with a message from R.J. MacReady, describing how nobody trusts anybody anymore and that everyone is very tired.
They then find information detailing how the base has been infiltrated by an extraterrestrial lifeform that is capable of imitating the physical appearance and characteristics of any living organism.
Whilst searching, they also find the body of Childs, one of the only two survivors at the end of the film, who has apparently died from exposure. The other survivor, MacReady, is nowhere to be found...
