The yet unnamed game will be based on the latest version of Chrome Engine, presumably - ver.2007. Rumors and speculation about Chrome sequel have roamed around since last year’s Chrome SpecForce – stand-alone mission pack release.
Pawel Marchewka – Techland’s CEO said : “We made a decision to begin production of Chrome sequel early in 2005, however the pre-production really started in the beginning of this year. Now, when Call of Juarez – our currently most important project enters beta phase, part of the team may redirect its work to first stages of Chrome sequel development. For some time now we are experimenting with interesting concepts taken form books, comics and sci-fi movies that at this point were never ported into video games or were ported without success. Basing on the few first elements we prototyped for the next part of Chrome we think it will revolutionize sci-fi games, allowing players to experience brand new content and original gameplay.â€
At this stage of development Techland reveals only that the game will feature a single-player campaign as well as multiplayer squad based play for up to 64 players. The game is planned to be released for PC and a next-gen platform. An exact release date for the game has not yet been set.
