An unannounced medieval RPG could be heading to the Wii U. The console is mentioned in a French job posting.

Take a look at this rough translation:

• Unannounced big budget (multi million dollar/euro) Fantasy Medieval Role-Playing is in the works.
• The game is for PC / Mac / console.   It is currently in pre-production.
• The job listing mentions “innovative peripherals (including Wii U)”.  Wii U is the only console mentioned on the job listing.
• IS is a company being created based in Montreuil, Paris (France).
• The team is mainly composed of veterans of the gaming industry and has an internationally recognized expertise in the field.
• Job listing says details will be announced to the press, between October and December 2012.
• Offers Pre-employment training : Only one student per class maximum.

Another posting was discovered on DeviantArt, and it sounds very much like the first one:

“We’re currently looking for freelances high poly 3D artists.
The project is a video game, an heroic fantasy RPG with higly detailled armors (~500 000 polys per character).  It’s not for real time, rather for rendering, 3D printing and other things of the same kind.

It’s a big project with a big budget (several millions dollars), but also with a lot of work.  Compensation will depend on quality and percentage of completion, from hundreds to thousands of dollars per character.“

Marc Kruzic appears to be behind this unannounced title as the game’s creator. He’s a project manager at Earthlings Games, and was involved with EA and Chillingo for a number of interactive storytelling children games for the iPad/iPhone/Android.

Hooray it’s back! Interesting topic that came to mind, sort of related to the podcast we’re trying to make function properly. What do you guys think?

Edit: I enjoy that- despite the new channel, new camera, and new “season”- youtube still picks the greatest thumbnails. So good. So brave.
