Red Orchestra Sequel Gets Outed Early
Much to the surprise of Tripwire Interactive's staff, it would seem as though a cover story running in PC Gamer magazine's latest issue has revealed the developer's new full-blown shooter sequel, Red Orchestra: Heroes of Stalingrad.
Tripwire boss Ramm Jaeger indicated in a post to the company's forums that this announcement came as a shock to the development team, and a certain amount of scrambling will have to be done on the public relations end of things.
Ok, here is the official statement on the game for now. Yes there is an article about our new UE3 game Red Orchestra: Heroes of Stalingrad in the UK and US PC Gamer magazines. Frankly, we're more than a bit surprised at the timing of the release of the article. To put it quite bluntly we thought this would hit after the release of Killing Floor. As such we'll be doing a bit of a scramble to get our PR efforts in order while we are in the middle of getting another game ready to ship.
I know many of you have been waiting a very long time for this news, and I am very happy that we can finally confirm what we've been working on these past three years. RO:HOS (as we call it) is real, its using UE3, and its awesome.
Tripwire just put the finishing touches on its other PC shooter, Killing Floor, which is scheduled to go live May 14th.
