Fable maker Lionhead is making an MMO-like role-playing game for the next Xbox, a job advertisement suggests.
It has single-player and multiplayer elements with four-player co-op, and is a new IP, according to an ad on LinkedIn (spotted by Superannuation).
"Opportunity to work on MMO like title for next generation consoles. AAA game and budget!" the post reads.
"This is to assist in the development of a major brand new IP that is being targeted for the future generation of platforms and will be an RPG based game with a radical new take on how co-operative and multiplayer gameplay feeds into the experience, while blending online and single-player into one complete experience."
There's mention of a "complex progression system, multiple routes through the campaign, and an MMO like multiplayer experience that will affect the outcome of the player experience, and many other attributes surrounding their profile (such as the environment and the outcome of certain actions)".
A multiplayer level designer is wanted, someone who ideally has worked on four-player co-op games. The development team size is said to be 150+.
