    Square has a new IP coming next year and it is called Murdered: Soul Suspect. There have been a number of teaser images with mysterious text on them, but now we get to see a short trailer which has a man, most likely our protagonist, leaping from a window as he attempts to shoot at someone. Without knowing fact one about this game I am going to assume it is about a detective who gets murdered and comes back and tries to solve his own death and has spiritual powers or something to that nature.

    Plus, it is Square so it is probably being written by Japanese writers who have no idea how ridiculous their script will sound in English.

    Murdered: Soul Suspect will be released in early 2014.

  • Ready For More Dishonored? Bethesda Is.

    New Hit Has Publisher Seeing Dollar Signs.

    In an interview with Destructoid Bethesda’s Pete Hines said that the game’s sales were above what the company had projected and it now appears they have a new franchise on their hands.

    “I can tell you that Dishonored is far exceeding our sales expectations, which is especially cool considering it’s new IP facing a host of well-established franchises this quarter.We did terrific numbers again this past weekend, both in stores and on Steam, where Dishonored was listed as the #1 selling title over the holiday weekend. And Dishonored has really sold well overseas. So, we’re very pleased and appreciate all the fans that have supported Dishonored and Arkane. We clearly have a new franchise.”

    Have you played Dishonored yet? If so, are you excited that the title appears to be getting sequels in the future?

    Check out our review of Dishonored here to see what we thought of the game.

  • Who Wants To Work On Watch Dogs? Here’s Your Chance.

    Ubisoft Throws Out A ‘Help Wanted’ Sign.

    Remember Watch Dogs? The game that surprised everyone at E3 earlier this year with its amazing look and ability to hack everything from cell phones to city maintenance to change red lights while making getaways? Well Ubisoft has been very tight lipped since the initial reveal but now they are back with a new video that does not show a lot more than what we have already seen but does have an interesting offer attached to it.

    The video shows interviews from designers that are working on the game telling what they hope to accomplish with this new IP and at the end of the video is a web address for anyone interested in helping craft this new world.

    No release date has been announced for Watch Dogs or what systems it will be coming to. This late in the console cycle I still maintain it will be a next-gen title.
