Whore of the Orient
Now before you let your imagination go anywhere, this is Team Bondi’s (of L.A. Noire fame) latest IP and “next-gen” project. Team Bondi’s website has the following information regarding its new project:
“Shanghai, 1936. Whore of the Orient. Paris of the East. The most corrupt and decadent city on the planet, where anything can be had or done for the right price. Plaything of Western powers who greedily exploit the Chinese masses. Boiling pot of Chinese nationalism, with the Kuomintang ruthlessly trying to suppress Communism and the labour movement. Home to the International Police Force, a group of Western cops hopelessly trying to keep the lid on and keep the peace.
From the development team who brought you L.A. Noire and The Getaway, along with the Academy Award winning film production team of Kennedy Miller Mitchell comes a completely new and original IP being developed for next generation games consoles and PC.”
The only released image at this time, definitely moody!
Even though I personally can’t really place the title’s name ( I can see this being banned already in Australia and Germany simply because of its title), it could be a great new IP. Being a “next-gen” project and only recently announced, we’ll probably have to wait a while before it comes out. Lets hope future info/screenshots are just as interesting as the title….
