Bungies next series is big

The wait for the reveal of Bungie's newest project with publisher Activision may only be a year away.

 

During an interview with IGN this afternoon, Activision COO Thomas Tippl dropped a few hints about when the studio will pull the curtain back on its game.

 

"We are super excited about the project that [bungie] is working on, which they will start talking about once Halo: Reach is out the door," Tippl said. "It's a very ambitious and phenomenal project, and in our view, matches very well with what gamers expect these days and where the industry is going."

 

Tippl also gave a few reasons why Activision would sign a lengthy 10-year publishing deal on an unproven, new franchise.

 

"We spent nine months with them to figure out what's the best way to work together, and we came to a great solution that works for them and works for us," he said. "We wouldn't have [signed the deal] unless it was a 10-year type of relationship as opposed to a one-off."

 

"We also wouldn't have done that if it wouldn't also make financial sense for us, and Bungie wouldn't have done that if they didn't think we are the best partner that can take that new game universe to the broadest possible audience."

 

Tippl also highlighted Activision's strong online capabilities as a reason Bungie signed with the publisher.

 

"Bungie wouldn't have signed if they didn't come to the conclusion that we have by far the best online capability between what we've be doing in Call of Duty and the expertise and institutional knowledge that sits at Blizzard."

 

When asked if Bungie fans should expect an announcement next year, Tippl teased the game will likely be revealed at E3 2011.

 

"Probably next E3, I would guess," he said. "You'll hear more about it."
