In preparation for the big day, Hello Games co-founder and managing director Sean Murray took to Reddit to answer some questions from excited fans. During an AMA (Ask Me Anything), Murray shared his feelings about the game and his excitement and anxiety over the release. He also shared an interesting bit of information about developer Hello Games: the team is already working on their next game. Murray said:
After hinting at the thought of the Hello Games team already working on something new, the developer went on to spill the beans that the next game is, in fact, already in development:
It’s quite surprising that a developer would be teasing a new game on the eve of such a big launch. However, considering the amount of excitement Murray and his team are feeling right now over the release of No Man’s Sky, it’s hard to blame him for letting that excitement spill into their next project.
Fortunately for Murray, he held off sharing any specific details about the next game, so gamers are left to their own imaginations, and to focus on No Man’s Sky. But based on the few statements Murray made, including his desire to be the “Johnny Depp of studios,” gamers can expect the next Hello Games title to be far different than No Man’s Sky or Joe Danger. And having already covered mobile and console gaming, it wouldn’t be surprising to see Hello Games tackle virtual reality next.
Of course, there’s still plenty to do with No Man’s Sky, and gamers have yet to see if the space exploration game lives up to the hype.
What do you think about Murray’s musings on Hello Games’ next title?
No Man’s Sky is set to release on August 9th for PS4 and August 12th for PC.
