What are Epic's "unannounced projects"?

OXM - Epic Games helped define the last console generation with the Gears of War franchise and the ubiquitous Unreal Engine 3. Yet as the new generation hits its stride, we've heard not a peep from the studio that brought us one of the Xbox 360's most iconic leading men. What gives, eh?

Epic hopefully you got something Epic up your sleeves

It's got to be new IP at this point - Gears Judgment was fun, but I don't think it sold that well. Or maybe they could reboot Unreal Tournament...

LAWSON724432d ago

IMO they should just make a new IP.

I would love a new Unreal if they supported it with features properly. The one the made on PS3 was really fun but lacked matchmaking and a real singeplayer component. I think it was missing split screen multiplayer as well...

fenome4432d ago

They're not exclusive to Microsoft anymore, so I think they're gonna take the Bungie approach and branch out with something new, I'm thinking a new IP. It's time to spread their wings

@ thehitman

split screen came in the 360 game, was then updated on the ps3 the same day. that game was a blast!!!

last time i played it, i used a Playstation Navigation controller with a mouse.....with in an hour. i was a beast on the online matches!!!!

Yeah judgment blew big time. I want another gears trilogy...no prequels. Remember you got locusts and kantus which is like some predator type race. They can work something out. I want it on PC and ps4 too though.

With Cliff B gone I wonder what is up with the Gears series? Possibly retooling it, or negotiating for the next deal? Will it be multi-plat?

They have "projects in the works, both new Ip's and old ones in the works known through various sources. Several programmers and producers have joined the company in the last months, with job listings on its official site calling for artists, designers and engineers "to work on multiple new and existing IP's across multiple platforms"? Gears on the PS4 too?

Fortnite looks interesting, like to see just where they are with it, how expansive in gameplay they are going.

That tech demo would be great to see as a full fledged title, wonder if it is?

These next few months are going to be full of new game announcements and unveiling's... Real exciting times...

I have had more fun playing Overrun in Judgment than any other online mode ever. I play it daily. I hope Epic makes another Gears game and it comes to PS4.

With Epic bleeding more people, i doubt we're going to see much quality from them. It was a fun ride, but things inevitable ends.

Nodoze4431d ago

Agree. I heard they are now Chinese owned. Ferguson, CliffyB all gone. It is NOT the same Epic.

Roccetarius4431d ago

Yeah, a lot of people weren't really happy about that.
