As reported earlier, Black Tusk Studios will be working on the next Gears of War game for Xbox One. Cliff Bleszinski (Cliffy B) won’t be involved in the game’s development.
Cliffy B was working for Epic Games and helped develop the previous Gears of War games. He left Epic Games in 2012 and now Microsoft itself hold the Gears of War IP.
Cliffy B announced the following on his tumblr:
I’m not going to move to Vancouver and work on it.
I’m not going to consult on it.
Cliffy B instead will be working on a new original game that he has yet to announce. He did however say that the Gears of War franchise is now in “good hands”.
