Turtle Rock Studios, the creators of one of Valve’s most successful games, Left 4 Dead, has sign with publisher THQ. The studio is going to work on an unnamed first-person shooter title that is scheduled to release in 2013.
“Our quest to sign the best artists and work with the best talent continues,” said Danny Bilson, EVP Core Games, THQ. “Turtle Rock Studios is responsible for one of the most original, critically acclaimed co-operative games of this generation, and we are incredibly excited to be working with them on their next project, which looks set to make a similar impact in the multi-player space.”
Sounds like the studio is making something other than a Zombie shooter. Perhaps they will work on a shooter that is more similar to what they made originally—Counter-Strike Source.
“We are thrilled to be working with THQ,” said Phil Robb, COO, Turtle Rock Studios. “This project is the most ambitious thing we’re ever attempted, and we’re inspired by the support THQ has shown to help us realize that vision. We’re going to take the first person shooter experience to a whole new level, and we can’t wait to show the game for the first time in the months ahead.”
There is no plan for either Turtle Rock or THQ to reveal anything for this upcoming E3 in two weeks.
