Online staff CVs have become the bane of marketing departments, because frankly they blurt out a lot of secrets. Starbreeze’s Bourne game outed as ‘Ascendancy’.
The developer’s Audio Director has a LinkedIn profile, and said profile spilled the beans saying he was working on the ”Bourne Ascendancy for EA”. It has since been edited out.
The ever vigilant superannuation spotted the spilling of these Bourne beans. The online LinkedIn profile of Carl Vikman now lists it merely as a ”new Bourne-game for EA”.
The Ludlum Estate is pleased they’re working ”with grown ups now,” as the first Bourne game was developed by High Moon and published by Sierra. EA and Starbreeze have been given the rights to develop this second game.
Starbreeze Studios has pedigree, they developed the awesome The Darkness videogame as well as the recent The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena.
