Sega announces publishing partnership with Lionhead and Bullfrog veterans
Two Point Studios and Sega to unveil debut project "early next year".
Two Point Studios is based out of Surrey in the south east of England and is headed by Garry Carr and Lionhead co-founder Mark Webley. Carr and Webley's combined profile boasts the likes of Theme Park, Theme Hospital, Black and White, and Fable—and a new an as yet unannounced project is on the way that'll be launched in partnership with Sega.
Said to have assembled a team of "some of the best talent" the pairing has worked with during their times at Bullfrog and Lionhead, Two Point's debut game is currently in-development which Sega says will be unveiled early into 2018.
"SEGA Europe have really impressed us with their approach to working with creative teams, their reputation as a PC publisher and their commitment to quality—they are an ideal partner for us," said Webley of the collaboration via a statement.
"We are really excited to be working with SEGA and between us we feel confident that we can create something special, and realise our vision of crafting a beautiful, charming and challenging sim game," added Carr.
I guess we'll find out more in several months time, then—but do you reckon there's any chance, any chance at all, a Theme Hospital sequel is in the works?
