Fast-forward to today, and the UK-based developer is now looking towards bigger and better things. Narrowly escaping the headsman’s axe, FreeStyle Games told Eurogamer that they have something big in store for the future, and creative director Jamie Jackson wanted to make clear that both FreeStyle and Activision were on board.
Unfortunately he was unable to say anything about what the project is or even when they would be able to speak about it, yet with E3 just next week, there could be a good chance that they might tease fans with something to get those creative juices flowing.
However, FreeStyle Games didn’t walk away completely unscathed, as design director David Osbourn confirmed that around 35 staff members were let go from the ranks.
We’ve seen what FreeStyle Games can do with DJ Hero, and while it was unfortunate what happened to them at the beginning of the year, their tenacity to hold on and fight through means that they have more tricks up their sleeves than just a spinning disc with buttons. What do you think they have in the wings? Could it be another rhythm game, or something entirely different? Give us your thoughts and ideas.
