Electronic Arts and Koei Tecmo announced a partnership that will see the latter creating "the next great hunting game" for the former. Koei Tecmo's Omega Force studio will lead development of this new game and it will be published under the EA Originals label.
Omega Force is the same team behind the Dynasty Warriors and Samurai Warriors games. All we know about this new game is that it will involve hunting and it will take place in a "fantasy feudal Japan." This game will be an original IP and will give players a "AAA experience."
EA says that there will be more details coming later this month. I'm not really sure why this thing, whatever it is, was even announced yet. Your guess is as good as mine.
“It's an honor to be partnering with EA Originals and to have the support of a team with such an incredible track record of releasing groundbreaking new games,†said Yosuke Hayashi, Executive Vice President of KOEI TECMO GAMES CO, LTD. “The EA team fully embraces our creative independence and have become invaluable partners offering both development and publishing support. Adding the global resources of EA with our own will help us introduce a new kind of hunting game to a global audience of players and expand our reach into global markets. I’m really looking forward to the day that gamers from around the world can play this new game.â€
