Yeah, not going to happen luicd is a small start up, and the majority of the core team went to work at playground.
Who gave us Horizon.
Which is, BTW a fucking awesome game.Games are like woman, what you might find attractive I might not, and none of us know if we really like them untill we have played around with them for a while.

Established in February 2011 by senior developers from Bizarre Creations, Lucid has set itself out to be a small team with big ideas and the skills to deliver them.
Our performance over the past few years has proved we are just that. We’ve successfully won contracts to build dynamic new IP, settled ourselves into a shiny new office in the heart of Liverpool’s creative quarter and completed a number of technically challenging work-for-hire contracts.
The team
With almost 40 staff at Lucid, each with unrivalled experience, our team have worked on some of the biggest gaming franchises to come out of the UK in the last 20 years. From PS1 classics such as Formula 1 97, the BAFTA winning Project Gotham Racing franchise through to recent blockbusters such as Blur and James Bond 007 : Blood Stone we’ve contributed to some of biggest selling games of the last two decades.

Well, unless MS hires Lucid Games to make a PGR, I don't think it could be PGR since MS owns that IP. BUT Lucid could make an exact replica of PGR with a different name. Originally Posted by Yungstar 2006

They actually put some work into a sequel. I'd post a link to the blog with the two videos but it was removed. It looked pretty cool though. Originally Posted by DarkVincent07

somewhat akin to MS owning Forza and getting Playground to make Horizon? but hey... speculation, right... Originally Posted by Soldier 95B

Actually looking at Playground, although its hard to say, because they only list previous employer, but Codemasters looks like it got gutted by Playground more than anyone. A few lead artist moved from Bizarre to PG. PG has about 80 staff. Looking at Lucids game list however, doesn't inspire me to believe they are in a position to give us PGR.
