Rumor: Rockstar North is Gearing Up for a New Game

[Takavach]

Rockstar North, the UK-based development studio behind the critically acclaimed Grand Theft Auto franchise, are gearing up for a new game, if recent http://www.edge-online.com/jobs are any indication.

As pointed out by Ether_Snake of http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=15987216&postcount=1, the developer is looking to fill positions in 8 different development areas, from character animators to Web site designers and everything in between.

To quote: While the postings are pretty cut and dry, they do mention that they're looking for programmers with PS360 experience, indicating a game for those platforms.

The obvious guess would be a new Grand Theft Auto game, but I'll go out on a limb to be different and say it's a new Manhunt game.

Rockstar North's most recent project was the 360 exclusive GTAIV DLC that came out earlier this year, The Lost and Damned.

Whatever it may be, I'm sure It will be a great game. I haven't known them to dissapoint yet. Of course they leave some stuff out that should be there, but isn't that all gaming companies? Ready for it!

Yea well It doesn't seem like a big campaign yet you would think that if it were a big game like Grand Theft Auto they would need more people. I think they may just be hiring people.

It is possible that the new game is a GTA title, but its most probably either a new manhunt of a whole new series.
