Eidos Interactive, the studio that brought gamers previous installments in the "Tomb Raider" franchise, is now hiring for positions that will be working on a next-generation installment for their ongoing franchise, "Thief."

According to a report from Gaming Blend on Sunday night, Eidos is currently in the process of hiring for a couple writing positions, one that will be working on a next-generation installment of "Thief."

The person who earns the positions will "help organize and manage different aspects of the project in conjunction with the Narrative Director, collaborate effectively with various departments to push the limits of story design and integration in the game and assist with the technical integration/implementation of story elements throughout the entire production process."

This next-generation "Thief" game has been dubbed, "Thief 4" as a tentative title; however, some believe it is likely the game will feature a different name once it is announced.

It has been over eight years since people have seen an installment in the "Thief" series, which was when "Thief: Deadly Shadows" was released.

The next iteration in the franchise could be debuting in 2014; however, there is little concrete information to go off of at this point.

"Thief 4" is expected to hit Xbox 720 systems when it releases.
