Unfortunately, Lionhead is unwilling to share even a tiny detail about the project just yet. When Eurogamer inquired about the nature of the project, Lionhead responded with a somewhat cheeky retort, “”Thanks for checking in with us! We’re happy to tell you all about what we’re working on. Just apply, get hired, and we promise to spill our guts!”
Quick! Somebody go get a computer science degree! Via Eurogamer.
