Here's a few more details about the unannounced AAA game that Housemarque are currently working on (that appears to be a PS4/PS5 exclusive).
From their
careers page, we know that it's an original IP:
Harry Krueger is the Game Director of the game. From his Twitter bio:
This tweet from Shu has him the picture, and is also tagged (he's the guy to the very right, the one next to him is the CEO):
This interview from last month has a few more details about the game:
- AAA
- Story is an important aspect of the game so they've naturally hired a narrative designer and writer
- Learning new tech/skills in the process
- They started pre-production on it a couple of years ago
- They had 60 people working on it at the time (1 month ago) which is x2 or x3 more than previous games
- They can hopefully talk about it a year from now (So maybe during a PS5 game reveal event)
- Gameplay is still core for them, so explosions and visual effects will still be present
