A few hours ago we witnessed a very particular and unexpected announcement. A new press release has been published on the official website of Electronic Arts announcing a special collaboration between EA and the Japanese company KOEI TECMO. This new creative partnership will lead to the development of a new original triple A IP, which already presents a series of very interesting first details that will appeal especially to lovers of the hunting game genre.
“It is an honor to partner with EA Originals and have the support of a team with an incredible track record in groundbreaking games,” said Yosuke Hayashi, executive vice president of KOEI TECMO GAMES. “The EA team fully embraces our creative independence and has become an invaluable partner for the support they offer in both development and publishing. Combining all of EA's resources with ours will help us bring a new type of hunting game to an international audience of players and expand our reach to global markets. I can't wait for players from all over the world to try this new game. "
Finally, in the official press release, we discover that we will know more about this new project towards the end of the month. We do not yet know how the title will be communicated and even if there will be an Electronic Arts event. For now we just have to wait and keep curiosity about this new IP at bay.
