Malice is a platform game developed by Argonaut Games and published by Mud Duck Productions in North America and Evolved Games in Europe, and was released in 2004 for the Xbox and PlayStation 2. The game's development cycle proved to be quite troublesome, with a change in publishers, cancellation and an eventual revival, the game's planned 2002 release would eventually be delayed to a Summer 2004 release. Malice was met with mixed reviews.
