So let’s hope that this new project is the right one for Warren Spector, who before missing the step (or even the entire staircase) with Underworld Ascendant had already lost his lucky star during his time at Disney (Epic Mickey in 2010, Epic Mickey 2 in 2012). In any case, this is not the time to tempt fate: the next Spector is therefore announced as an immersive simulation based on a brand new license developed by OtherSide Entertainment.
“Fans of my work already know what to expect: an immersive world and engaging storytelling that players will directly impact through their choices and playstyles. We’re still early in development and can’t wait to share more information soon“, commented the director and producer of Deus Ex.
Founded by Warren Spector and his accomplice Paul Neurath, OtherSide Entertainment is embarking on this new adventure with the support of Jeff Goodsill. Appointed general manager of the studio in January 2022, this veteran who worked for Ensemble Studios, Iron Lore Entertainment and Tencent will bring his long managerial experience to the studio, which has a few vacancies in Boston and Austin.
“As an advisor, Jeff has already made us a more efficient development studio. As a full-time member of the team, he will be instrumental in helping us achieve our goal of becoming a leading developer whose games empower players to tell their own stories.“, assures Warren Spector.
