Exciting news may be on the horizon for gaming enthusiasts! There are hints suggesting that Insomniac Games, known for titles like Ratchet & Clank and Spider-Man, is developing a new AAA game.
In an interview recorded in September 2022, Insomniac Games’ Project Director, Erin Eberhardt, confirmed their third game is in development. Erin claimed they were helming an unannounced project at the studio.
Insomniac Games Interview
Twitter user @Dream_WaIker recently resurfaced the interview, sharing it across the internet and garnering widespread attention.
Erin repeats twice that the game is unannounced and that she’s unable to talk about it, so we’re fairly confident this isn’t Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 or Marvel’s Wolverine. She emphasizes that this new game is AAA and not just a side-project. Suggesting it could be the studio’s next big thing.
“This is actually my first triple-A game project now, I’m the project director here on an unannounced project,” Eberhardt said on the stream. “I’m very excited to actually be making the games now.”
Insomniac Job Listing
Insomniac Games recently tweeted a job listing for their new multiplayer project. They’re looking for a creative director, multiplayer systems designer, story lead, art director, and more.
Insomniac hasn’t provided any additional details about this multiplayer project, but the job listing for the system designer role asks for applicants with an understanding of “melee combat systems, enemy design, and boss design.” This means that this mystery project isn’t a shooter, and will likely feature PvE co-op play.
When Should We Expect This New Project?
Although it’s nice to hear that we might get a completely new and original project from Insomniac, We’ll likely have to wait until Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 and Wolverine are out to get more details about this next multiplayer project. Till then, Make sure to stick around Nerdlad for more updates!
