Big news has drifted down the grapevine suggesting Bethesda is on the brink of announcing a new top-secret project in collaboration with none other than Disney. This revelation has the gaming world sitting at the edge of their seats, thirsty for more.
It seems like every time we think we've got a grip on what Bethesda has up its sleeve, another surprise tumbles out. This time, courtesy of a hefty Microsoft leak, our ears perked up to the possibility of a yet-unnamed licensed game.
Enter Shpeshal Nick, a voice in the Xbox Era podcast, who dropped the tidbit of Disney and its involvement in this now-not-so-mystery project. But which Disney property? From Star Wars to Marvel, the pool is deep and wide.
Roundhouse Studio, famed for its work on the Rune series, is whispered to be the mastermind behind this title. The air's thick with speculation that it might be the online shooter, peppered with elements from a notable comic license, which we heard about last year. Given this direction, Star Wars might just take a backseat, leaving room for something else, perhaps from the Marvel universe, to shine.
Among the documents in the leak, two peculiar names popped up: Project Kestrel and Project Platinum. Puzzling, yes, but when pieces of the jigsaw fit together, one of these might be our elusive Disney game. This isn't to be confused with the Indiana Jones title on the horizon by Machine Games - this is an entirely different beast.
