When Far Cry developers Crytek bought shuttered British studio Free Radical, many wondered how long it would be until we saw the return of the Timesplitters franchise. That time may be soon.

āWeāre talking to publishers at the moment about whether thatās [TimeSplitters] a viable route or not,ā Crytek UKās Karl Hilton tells Eurogamer.
āThere hasnāt been a TimeSplitters game for quite a while. Obviously TimeSplitters is a FPS with a strong multiplayer element. The question is, is that the way to go with another one, or should it go down a different route, or should we be developing a new IP altogether?ā
Iād say go with Timesplitters, thanks. Though just in case the studio does decide to go down a different route, the studio is also shilling to publishers āa single-player and multiplayer first-person shooterā based on new, original IP.
