David Cage, founder of Quantic Dream, has revealed that the developer is currently in the process of working on two new projects.
Speaking to the Examiner, Cage observed that the studio has achieved some credibility in the development of new IPs thanks to Heavy Rain, and as a result is keen to continue taking risks, and not simply ‘playing it safe.’
“We currently work on two very different projects,” he said.
“Often, after a long and challenging project like Heavy Rain, it is difficult for the team to get excited again about a new idea. This is absolutely not the case at the moment at Quantic and all the team seems enthusiastic about the possibility of other projects. The team and the company continue to grow in experience, confidence and talent.”
“After Heavy Rain, we have some credibility in experimenting with new IPs and new concepts. We are not going to play it safe from now, we are going to use this credibility to continue to take risks, give ourselves exciting challenges and try to invent new ways of playing.”
“I believe that this is what Quantic Dream’s fans expect us to do. It is also what keeps me passionate about what we are doing.”
No word on the nature of these two projects, though hopefully we may hear something at GamesCom next month. Stay tuned.
