Secret meetings held with several studios to find best-suited developer
Microsoft is in talks with several European independent studios to bring the Project Gotham Racing series back to the Xbox 360, Develop can reveal.
A trusted source told Develop that Microsoft remains undecided on which studio to hand the project to.
Project Gotham became a multi-million-selling series when it was steered by Liverpool-based studio Bizarre Creations, though the developers involvement ceased in 2007.
Turn-10 has for a number of months been considered the most likely candidate to develop future Project Gotham titles. The Microsoft-owned studio has, with the help of extensive outsourcing, developed three successful Forza racing games.
Yet Microsofts hunt for a studio partner suggests the project will not be brought in-house.
