Rare Will Reveal New Project at E3 - Not Kinect Game

Woodroffe was responding to news that Banjo-Kazooie inspired project Yooka-Laylee by former Rare developers was successfully funded on Kickstarter last week when he said "E3 Will tell the world what Gregg Mayles new project is about."

Mayles previously worked on Rare's Donkey Kong Country games as well as Viva Pinata. When a fan suggested that it might be another 3D platformer, Woodroffe said that the company is more about new things, and also indicated that it isn't Kinect game. Woodroffe also quoted Mayles, saying "This is more fun than anything we've ever done."

This isn't the first sign we've seen that Rare is ready to talk about a new project. In January, composer Robin Beanland, who has worked at the company for more than 20 years, said that 2015 would be a "huge" year for the UK studio.
