John Needham, het hoofd van Lionhead, heeft Eurogamer verteld een nieuw team opgesteld te hebben voor het ontwikkelen van prototypes voor nieuwe games. Het team bestaat uit acht man en wordt begeleid door Lionhead’s creative director Gary Carr. De games betreffen gloednieuwe IPs en toevoegingen voor de multiplayer modus van Fable Legends. Needham hoopt volgend jaar met meer details te kunnen komen.
It’s a team of about about eight guys we have in the studio who are trying to build the next big IP for us. They’re working on a couple of new prototypes for completely different games – not Fable related. They’ll also be working on new games we can put within Fable Legends as well.
The primary purpose of the group is to come up with new game IP, and we’ll hopefully this next year have something exciting to talk about.
We’re going to come up with new IP.
There is great IP in Lionhead’s history, it’s just spotty who owns what. Fable, clearly we’re going to be investing most of the studio’s efforts into that, but we’ll have some new IP to share with you soon.”
