DriveClub director confirms he’ll reveal his next game this year

Paul Rustchynsky, who was additionally lead designer on several MotorStorm titles at Sony‘s Evolution Studios, is currently working on an unannounced project as part of Avalanche Studios’ new Liverpool development team, which was formed last summer.

Nice. I really like Avalanche's Apex system, it can make some pretty stunning environments. Hopefully it'll translate well into a racing game! (assuming that's what he's working on)

[Magog]

He specifically says it won't be a racing game of any kind.

[deleted]

Yea, I see he posted a different tweet clarifying that now, but that was not posted in this original tweet or any of the replies. I apologize for not scrolling through all of his Twitter account.Thanks.

@OtterX It's in the credit URL actual story. No need to get upset.

Cant wait to hear more.

Motorstorm 2 deserves a remaster.

The balanced monster trucks vs dirt bikes.

[chicken_in_the_corn]

Why a remaster? A new game would be so much better

[MIDGETonSTILTS17]

Because it’s been designed already…

[Azfargh]

I would be happy with just that at 60fps... but... if it were a new game with course maker, 50 cars racing at the same time, focusing on Pacific Rift and Monument Valley... I would feel way better

[MIDGETonSTILTS17]

That sounds like alotta extra work for content nobody is clamoring for.

Classic maps for me please. I actually want the game to release.

"To set some expectations, I'm not working on a racing game.
So sorry, no DRIVECLUB sequel, MotorStorm successor or ONRUSH offshoot.
This is something very different to anything I've worked on before"
So it will not be a racing game. That's a shame. :(

[moriarty1889]

Agreed. Driveclub and Motorstorm were great games and deserve sequels. Onrush was fun for me as well. I wonder what type of game he will unveil when the time comes.

[Mr_Luke]

Damn, i hoped a DC or Motorstorm sequel... :( let's see what they can pull out from the hat.

[LoveSpuds]

Shuttering Evolution Studio was one of the rare instances that Sony really got it wrong in my opinion.

The Motorstorm games were utterly brilliant, I can only imagine what a modern Motorstorm game would look like. Drive Club was a bit rough at first but quickly developed into a fantastic racer and was one of my all time faves as it gave a really immersive racing experience.

Sony were way too premature in closing Evolution.

[jerethdagryphon]

They really did mess it up avalanche should try to buy drive club IP

[Abnor_Mal]

I was just playing Drive club VR an hour ago, it's actually still on pause.

Sony should have never closed Evolution Studios, and Zipper, what I wouldn't give for a new Aocim game with the feel of Socom1 and 2. Hell even Socom3 wasn't that bad.

[EvertonFC]

Yep I still shake my head at those decisions EVO and Zipper and add to that Liverpool studios closing who did the wipeout games.

[Abnor_Mal]

True and let's not forget 989 Studios who made the Jet Moto series.
