Brash Entertainment today announced a development agreement with Yoshiki Okamoto's Game Republic.
Although Okamoto-san' recent titles (Genji "real-time weapon change" and Folklore) haven't enjoyed the success of his past titles (Street Fighter II, Resdient Evil), the unannounced project will be based on a popular Hollywood movie and arrive in 2010 - we're hoping it's Thundercats
"As a gamer, I am extremely excited to work with Okamoto-san, who has produced some of my favorite games," said Brash co-founder and CEO Mitch Davis. "The Brash business gives us the luxury to match the best Hollywood IP with the skills of the most talented independent game developers; our partnership with a strong studio such as Game Republic, Inc. is an excellent example of that."
"One of my goals with games is to do something revolutionary with something that has been never been seen before. The opportunity to re-imagine a fictional world provided by a compelling Hollywood IP using the interactive medium of games is very exciting to me," said Okamoto. "In collaborating with Brash, we were introduced to a very compelling fictional world and given the freedom to expand it through the game. We are working directly with the creative talent from the film, and feel that the close collaboration will result in an amazing game play experience that immerses the player in an incredible fantasy world."
