Former Rare and Free Radical Design veteran Steve Ellis has joined THQ Nordic to work on whatever’s next for TimeSplitters.
Ellis is described by THQ Nordic as co-creator of the much-loved, much-missed British shooter franchise – which the publisher snapped up from former owner Crytek this time last year.
In a press release today, THQ Nordic said Ellis had “joined us to help plot the future course for this franchise”. It’s unknown what a new TimeSplitters game might look like now – a sequel? a remake? – or who else from that original team nearly two decades ago may return.
