3DRealms announced that June 22nd is Prey day, as it will release a five-level single/multiplayer demo on PC, as well as Xbox 360 (available through Xbox Live Marketplace). Prey is a serious, dark story, based on authentic Cherokee mythology. Themes of sacrifice, love and responsibility are explored and the story dives into emotional territory not yet explored by similar games. We will, of course, have it on our fileserver network as soon as it's available.
