New AAA project with Unreal 5 at Sony and new studio in development
The Unreal Engine 5 is the new star in the developer sky, which is why it is hardly surprising that more and more titles are using the new engine. Not only is this used in titles that have already been announced, such as the new Bioshock offshoot, but also numerous previously unknown projects want to use Unreal Engine 5 for their game.
New Unreal Engine 5 game in development at Ballistic Moon
So probably the new studio Ballistic Moon, which according to their LinkedIn profile currently working on a new game with a “major publisher”. The studio itself doesn’t explain which publisher it is, but according to a motion capture actor’s profile, the title is being developed in cooperation with Ballistic Moon and Sony Interactive Entertainment.
Furthermore, the title is currently arguably known as Project Bates, and according to some Tweets from Ballistic Moon The new Unreal Engine 5 is also used in this game. The studio itself was founded in 2019 by industry veterans who have worked on games like Until Dawn and Heavy Rain, among others.
The game is said to be in a very early stage of development, according to Ballistic Moon, and the studio is still looking for new talent to fill roles such as artist, animator, and gameplay programmer. It is not yet known when we can expect any news about Project Bates, but at least it is quite certain that the title will be released on the PlayStation 5.
