According to a Swansea Metropolitan University student, Lionhead’s animation director Andrew Lindsay popped into to class with a new game.
While showcasing some ”incredible facial animation”, Lindsay said ”a new game” from a new IP will be announced at E3. Previous hints from the studio suggest this is likely the case.
”Every now and then industry heads visit our class,” said the Uni student, reports GameSpot.
”Not much was said really, just that an announcement for a new game of a new franchise will be revealed. He showed off some incredible facial animation and spoke about some skin textures (put skin up to a light and the red translucent glow).”
Peter Molyneux himself has said his team are ”almost ready to start showing the world what happens when you feel safe about experimenting and inventing and prototyping, and that can lead to some pretty amazing things and we’ve got some amazing things in our pocket.”
Will we never get a new Black & White game? At least something with great facial expressions is on its way it seems. E3 kicks off on June 2nd this year.
