I love Bloober, I do not care if their games scores mediocre on Meta-critic their games always resonate with me and they are one of my Favorite developers. I’m very excited to see what they do with another Famous horror IP, I loved Blair Witch
People on other forums are speculating this is Silent hill related, would be cool if it is as MS has a 3 game deal with them and they have one more remaining so it would be Irony if Bloober is working on a Silent Hill timed Exclusive for Xbox.
Either way MS needs to seal the deal and buy this developer, they have proved their worth and gives xbox a really good horror Game dev in their pocket.
He adds, “In fact, we’ve been working for more than a year on another gaming project, another horror IP, and we’re doing this with a very famous gaming publisher. I can’t tell you who. I can’t tell you what the project is, but I’m pretty sure when people realize we’re working on it, they will be very excited.”
People are weird about Bloober probably cause of their closes ties to Xbox, but their output has been great. Going back to having Layers of Fear on the Xbox preview program I’ve really enjoyed each and every game they have made recently and I think they are the best Dev in the Horror Genre.
What is the chance that it is exclusive ? I hope it’s multiplat. I mean : a Silent Hill Xbox exclusive would be weird and PS exclusive would be excruciating. I hope it’s multiplat, because of Bloober and those involved.
Still, it’s intriguing. After the Kojima project, eyes will be wide open on this one. I’m glad that Bloober talent is recognized.
Who knows, MS is said to have a 3 games deal with Bloober, Blair Witch and The Medium are the first 2 so potentially one more game remaining, maybe this is the 3rd game and if so will probably be timed exclusive.
I hope MS drops the teases and just buys them outright, great Dev that make unique games
Guys, I am seeing comments talking about how this “prominent japanese developer” could be Tango Gameworks. Oh lord lmaoooo if that ends up true. Probably won’t be exclusive, but at least it has a chance to not skip Xbox.
There are multiple Silent Hill games in the works, including a Japanese team and Bloober Team.
Bloober is working on something else that may have been long silent like:
*Fatal Frame
*Condemned
Also, I’d argue Layers of Fear is one on the more prominent horror IPs of recent years (mainly due to lack of competition), so it could be a 3. Not to mention VR support gave the games new audience.
wasn’t Condemned made by Monolith, the Mordor games developer? Lol would be very interesting.
The studio that made Condemned eventually made a game which led to a patent, now Bloober is making Condemned after patenting their dual world stuff on The Medium.
(Patents on game mechanics are fucking horrible btw).
