Arkane founder Raphael Colantonio believes fans of Dishonored and Prey will be happy with the next game from his current studio.
After 18 years at Arkane, serving as President and Co-Creative Director, Colantonio announced the formation of a new company called WolfEye Studios in 2019.
The studio's debut title, Weird West, was released in 2022. The dark fantasy reimagining of the Wild West is a top-down action RPG and immersive simulation that received scores of 76 (PC), 73 (PS4), and 81 (Xbox One) on review aggregation site Metacritic.
Colantonio began announcing WolfEye's next game in March, describing it as a “retro sci-fi RPG” from a first-person perspective.
And on Tuesday he said players will learn more about the title soon.
We're working on our next game. Who wants a little preview? 👀

“We'll reveal a little more about our next game in a few days… fans of the previous first-person shooter games I've been involved with (Dishonored and Prey) are in for a treat,” WolfEye's president and creative director wrote on X.
Colantonio founded WolfEye with CEO Julien Roby, a former executive producer at Arkane who spent 11 years at the studio before working as a producer on Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel and Mafia 3 at 2K.
