Oberoende utvecklare blir en allt ovanliga syn i spelvärlden, men det finns ett fåtal som fortfarande kan välja fritt bland utgivarna. En av dessa är #Epic Games och efter ett längre samarbete med #Midway har de nu vänt sig till #Electronic Arts för att få lite extra muskler bakom understudion #People Can Flys nästa spel.

Spelet i fråga vet vi tyvärr inte alltför mycket om förutom att det utvecklas till PC, Playstation 3 och Xbox 360. Med tanke på #People Can Flys senaste titel #Painkiller är dock oddsen för en actionfylld förstapersonspangare inte alltför höga.
