Harebrained Schemes, the acclaimed studio behind strategy hits BattleTech and Shadowrun Returns, is teasing something brand new.
The strategy-centric studio tweeted a teaser video just yesterday (see below), showing off a shadowy, futuristic city with what appears to be a crater gaping in the middle, before jumping to a view of a planet with a cloud of debris hanging over it. “Something’s coming,” the studio teased, alongside a link to their website that has “GRAFT” in big, bold letters.
Harebrained Schemes' executive producer Mike McCain also released ablog postin March, explaining that the team was hard at work on prototyping its next project to then pitch to potential publishers. “We’ve found the fun, and they’re taking a look,” McCain wrote at the time. So the above tease might indicate that the studio’s next game is properly going ahead.
