Harmonix planning at least three new AAA properties

Harmonix, known for a library of titles that includes Dance Central and Lego Rock Band, is developing "three and/or more" new IPs.

The company isn't making any announcements yet, but they did provide a vague hint.

"Some of them are music games. Some of them are not full-on rhythm action games," said John Drake, director of communications and brand management. "Some of them are brand new things that we created from our guts and brains here at Harmonix. Some of them are sort of like things we're explaining the universe of."

Drake denied that the titles were new Dance Central or Rock Band games, adding, "It's not Amplitude or Frequency."

Harmonix currently features 20 job listings on their websites, including an opening for a Senior Level Designer who can "build gameplay environments for innovative motion-gaming IP on next-generation hardware" and has "experience with and passion for open-world or landscape-based games."

"I can definitely confirm that the overwhelming majority of the positions on our site are for unannounced AAA projects that are new IP," Drake informed Polygon.
