Wooo! Can't wait to see it! Probably Battletoads, although I wouldn't mind another Viva game for One.


While im most certain that Battletoads is in the works either by rare or by somebody else, this sounds like a new ip

"When a fan suggested that it might be another 3D platformer, Woodroffe said that the company is more about new things,"

That's really interesting then. My fault for not reading  

One could use more and new 3D platform games. Even more intrigued.

Rare Job Posting Points at Cross-Platform Multiplayer Game with Intense Art Style

Since being under the Microsoft House hold name Rare Ltd has been heavily scrutinized over the years for not delivering the same calibre games as they did in the 90's.  This isn't to say they have done a bad job, in fact both Kameo and Viva Pinatas has been two great games with Rare under Microsoft.  Even Kinect Sports performed very well on the Xbox 360. It also seems that Microsoft is more open to bringing back some of Rare's older IP like Killer Instinct which launched back in 2013 with the launch of Xbox One.



On the other side of things we aren't just talking about owned IP being built by external devs, but Rare themselves making a game.  What we know is that Rare is working on multiple games, up to three in fact is rumored.  However we are still in the dark to what these are but both Banjo-Kazooie and Battletoads is heavily rumored because of Phil Spencer and insider Kamp on Neogaf.  However as Phil Spencer once said, new IP is in Rare's DNA so you never really know what to expect from them

Today with a new job listing we learned a little more about this project.  It is a game built under Unreal Engine 4 which could point to being a AAA game, but the more exciting news is that it is that they are looking for people who are experienced in cross-platform developement.  This wouldn't be the first game that Rare has built for PC looking at Viva Pinatas.  Rare is also looking for developers with experience in online multiplayer games at scale which makes it look like a strong focus will be on muliplayer. Lastly the art direction is looking for an "intense mood and atmosphere" which makes me think this will be a new IP since I can't think of any Rare game that would emulate this.

So what could it be?  Are you excited as I am?  For more information on the job posting please click on the link below for a much more information

Will be Banjoo Kazoie for sure!



Whatever their project is, I'm excited to see it. Hopefully it can silence all the anti Rare sentiment on the internet.



It's not a Kinect game...



















It's a Kinect 2.0 game.
