Hi-Rez Studios Announcing New Game Tomorrow

By Jason Winter, News Editor Posted: October 18, 2016

Global Agenda 2? A better Tribes? Whatever Hi-Rez Studios has up its sleeves, we'll find out tomorrow, as was revealed on the Smite Twitter feed today:

Get ready for some big news! We'll be announcing our new game tomorrow on the Patch Notes Show (4 pm EDT)! https://t.co/qA2UpfWqe4

So... yeah. We know Hi-Rez has been working on something for a while, and the company is expanding its HQ building by 9,000 square feet, with plans to add 75 jobs over the next few months. The company's already got a MOBA and a hero shooter, to fit with the mandate that every game company must have at least one of these in its portfolio, so that doesn't leave much. A CCG? Survival game? *gasp* MMORPG?

We'll keep you updated and publish whatever we learn after tomorrow's big reveal. What do you think it'll be?

I'd like to see them take another crack at Tribes, since i crave that type of game so much. They probably won't though, given the niche audience and the previous failiure :/

I'm not a huge fan of Hi-Rez but it would be nice if we can get some more studios or developer companies besides blizzard entertainment who can make good games instead of p2w trash like what most of the MMO industry seems to be doing.
