Three secret projects at Vicarious Visions

Activision studio Vicarious Visions is working on three unannounced titles, including one for Wii U, in addition Skylanders: Spyro's Adventures.

A staffer's LinkedIn page, as spotted by Gamespot, revealed three codenamed projects at the studio - Project Atlantis, for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360; Project Phoenix, for PlayStation 3, Wii, and Xbox 360; and finally, Project Nova, for PlayStation 3, Wii U and Xbox 360.

Since it's acquisition in 2005, Vicarious has become one of Activision's primary in-house porting studios, mainly producing DS, Game Boy, PSP and Wii builds, but it was also behind Marvel: Ultimate Alliance 2 for major consoles.

Vicarious Vision's Wii U development was hinted at during the console's debut at E3 2011, when Karthik Bala joined a number of other third-party developers in praising the new tech.
