We Recently Came Across A Job Listing That The Studio Is Working On A Live-Service Game

The game’s budget will match that of Final Fantasy XVI. Currently, the game is pending Tencent’s review and has already been in development for 2 years. A release is planned for 2028. Unfortunately, the leaker suggests it is an average game and not something special.

As for the Bayonetta and Metal Gear Rising Revengeance remakes, they’re expected to be more remasters and less remakes. These titles will be released next year and will be multiplatform.

All of the studio’s upcoming projects are being developed on Unreal Engine 5. We recommend taking these leaks with a grain of salt until official confirmation.
