Lionhead Working On RPG For Next Xbox?

The new Microsoft Console hasn’t even been revealed yet, but we are already getting reports of studios developing for it.

A job ad posted on LinkedIn links Lionhead Studios to an “MMO-like multiplayer experience” that is being developed for Microsoft’s next console. The ad is hiring someone “To assist in the development of a major brand new IP that is being targeted for the future generation of platforms and will be an RPG-based game with a radical new take on how co-operative and multiplayer gameplay feeds into the experience, while blending online and single-player into one complete experience.”



The ad goes in depth about the supposed game, saying that it will include “a complex progression system, multiple routes through the campaign, and an MMO-like multiplayer experience that will affect the outcome of the player experience, and many other attributes surrounding their profile (such as the environment and the outcome of certain actions).” Perhaps Lionhead is making some sort of single-player/MMO hybrid, something like Monster Hunter perhaps?

As of now, we have no idea what Microsoft has in store for the future of its console business. Perhaps we will see something new at this year’s E3.
