John reported nearly two weeks ago that The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena was dated for an April 7 launch.  So, nothing new there.  But the official website is live, and the demo for Assault on Dark Athena will be hitting Xbox Live Marketplace and PlayStation Network at an undisclosed date in March (plus, nothing demo-wise scheduled for the PC).
