It's been more than six years since Blizzard launched its own brand new IP. In that case it was Overwatch , and for Blizzard it was yet another incredible success. Now, years later, it seems that the well-known US company is working on something else new, and within the studio that is creating this new experience there would be a former figure who is very important for the Far Cry saga.
This is Dan Hay, ex-producer of the Far Cry series, who only decided to leave Ubisoft last year, after having been one of the key figures within the Ubisoft Montreal studio for a decade . Thanks to the efforts of that team, we owe the latest installments of the popular Far Cry series. Now, thanks to Blizzard's year-end update, we discover that there is a new IP in the works in which Dan Hay is involved.
According to what is stated, Hay would be leading the development team of this new IP, which in the last year it has doubled its employees, with Blizzard trying to grow it even more over the next half-year. According to the little information we have on this mysterious new IP, it should be a survival experience with a triple A budget and a very different world than anything we've been used to from past Blizzard productions.
At the moment the company is still looking for employees to enlarge the team of this new project, for this reason it still seems very early to understand better when and how we will be able to see this new Blizzard IP in action since Overwatch.
