Bungie: next game to be 'totally different' - Image 1


Bungie Studios' recent podcast revealed that the game development studio has another game in the works, and it's a "totally different" offering one might expect from the creators of the Halo franchise. Brian Jarrard, the current head of franchise and community affairs, hinted that the new title is "pretty cool," though they were really hush-hush about it.

"We can say... is sort of Bungie's next game that isn't Halo 3 expansion, DLC type stuff, this would be something totally different from Bungie," said Jarrard, though details were never revealed as Bungie considered the project "far far too early" to expound on. But he says that will change soon and more juicy info would be unveiled "eventually."

"It's tough for us to really get into the stuff our listeners would love to hear about which is what we're currently working on," added Jarrard while speaking with content manager Frank O'Connor, lead designer Christian Allen, and writer Luke Smith. More on this as they come along.

If it really is "totally different", it won't be a first-person shooter. Games in that genre can only be so different from one another. That said, I have a feeling it will be a FPS, and it will maybe just be a complete different storyline, maybe different weapons, etc.
