Project Prometheus Website Updated With Hope of Three More High-Res Images Dan Koelsch, March 27, 2012March 27, 2012 The Project Prometheus website, which is part of the viral campaign for Ridley Scott’s Alien prequel Prometheus, has been updated to include all the high resolution images we’ve discovered so far and the promise of three more on the horizon. Get the details after the break. Project Prometheus is a private space mission to find alien life from Weyland Industries. The project was triggered by return messages from radio signals we sent out to various star systems that were dubbed Cosmic Call 2. Two subpages were recently discovered on the Project Prometheus website that unlocked high resolution images from the 20th Century Fox sci-fi action thriller. The updated website now showcases those images with in-world explanations about how “Weyland Investors” found those and the first image we found on the Weyland website. There are three spots left to unlock if the PP website is to believed, so let’s get to work.What do you think about Prometheus ARG players being called Weyland Investors by the campaign itself? Let us know in the comments below. To catch up on all things Prometheus, check out our Prometheus Hub. ARGs & Campaigns Viral Marketing Project PrometheusPrometheusWeyland Industries
