At the moment, all that is known about the project is that it will be released on PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. Much attention will be paid to the plot and character, and the events will take place in the open world.
Maverick Games was founded in 2022 by several key developers of the Forza Horizon series, including Mike Brown, former creative director of the Forza Horizon franchise.
“In our ongoing global search for talented development teams creating exciting games that players will love, Maverick Games has stood out as a studio capable of delivering success on all fronts. Mike and his team are proven game developers who are masters of their craft and are not satisfied with the status quo. Their vision for this game is fresh and innovative, and we look forward to working with them to bring it to players around the world.” — Christoph Hartmann, Vice President of Amazon Games.
“We founded Maverick Games with a clear goal: to create a developer-first studio that fosters an environment of creativity and risk-taking. This approach allows our team to create the most outstanding work of their careers. And ultimately, that means we’re creating a game that our players are sure to fall in love with. As we got to know the Amazon Games team, it quickly became clear that we shared the same principles – a desire to give developers the space to truly innovate in creating games that players will find truly special. Without going into too much detail, the team here is excited about our game and we can’t wait to share it with the world.” – Mike Brown, Creative Director, Maverick Games.
At the moment, it is unknown when the game from Maverick Games will be officially presented.
