Bulletstorm Dev Working on AAA Shooter

People Can Fly is also working on a smaller indie game that will be revealed in 2016.

14 Comments

Bulletstorm and Gears of War: Judgment developer People Can Fly is developing a AAA shooter alongside a smaller project, studio boss Sebastian Wojceichowski has revealed.

"We've been working on it since the beginning of the year," he said, speaking in an interview with Game Pressure. "Before that, we were polishing the concept."

No Caption Provided

Wojcelchowski noted that, although the project is early in the early development stage, it has a publisher lined up and "the mere fact of acquiring a publisher at such an early stage is a testament to our vast experience."

People Can Fly will release more information on the AAA title next year, but didn't provide a specific window for the announcement beyond that. Its indie game, meanwhile, seems more certain for a 2016 reveal.

In June 2015, People Can Fly regained its independence from Epic Games. As part of the deal it maintained ownership of the Bulletstorm IP, which it developed for EA as part of Epic Games.

It is also "actively contributing to Unreal Engine 4 and Epic's upcoming game, Fornite." Unreal Engine is being used to develop its "entirely new unannounced game."

Cliff Bleszinski made Bulletstorm what it was. Don't care since he isn't involved.

They were there for me with Bulletstorm when Duke Nukem Forever let me down. I can't wait to see what they're cooking up next!

...aaaaand that AAA title had damned well better be BULLETSTORM 2.

I distinctly recall hating on the game's in-your-face scoring system, so I turned it off and found an AMAZINGLY fun FPS underneath. In fact, after playing with the variety of weapons, I ended up turning the scoring back on for the 2nd half.

Oh, the fond memories of the giant remote-controlled ____________ ___... :)

@roler42: Yep! If they announce 2, it'll be another "shut up and take my money" moment for me.

@doordie82: Could you imagine if they actually proof read and edited prior to posting like true professionals...

Bulletstorm 2 while your at it. That last game was fun and it left a cliffhanger for that matter.

@straightcur: I don't know about more. But we do need non-generic shooters. Bullet Storm falls into that category. I will pay top dollar for Bullet storm 2 or a game that is similar to it. Bullet Storm stands out among shooters for its graphic violence and comedy. none of the games out now come close. Doom has the violence but not the comedy. None out right now have the comedy, except for Sunset Overdrive. Comedy is lacking too much in games these days.
