Lionhead is reportedly developing an "MMO-like multiplayer experience" for the next-generation Xbox console.
The UK-based developer posted a job listing on LinkedIn that confirms the game, which won't be directly related to Fable.
The ad called for a professional "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.
“The game will have 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)," the ad continued, as reported by Edge.
The developer recently released Fable Heroes to mixed reviews, and co-founder Peter Molyneux departed the studio and its owner Microsoft back in March.
