Fallout and Elder Scrolls house Bethesda has formed a "development partnership" with Enemy Territory studio, Splash Damage.
There's no details WHAT-SO-EVER on what the two are working on but we can assume, if there's any justice in the world, that it's not Enemy Territory: Oblivion.
"We're really looking forward to working with Bethesda," said Paul Wedgwood, Splash Damage boss. "Both of our studios share a passion for creating great games, and we're confident that this partnership will result in even greater experiences for gamers."
Splash Damage has been critically acclaimed for its multiplayer shooter based on id shooter series Wolfenstein and Enemy Territory, while Bethesda is still working away on super action-RPG Fallout 3.
"This could not be a more perfect fit," said Vlatko Andonov, president of Bethesda Softworks. "We are extremely impressed with Splash Damage and the quality titles they produce. They are highly creative and innovative, and have demonstrated a high level of dedication to their projects. We are confident that gamers everywhere will be thrilled with the offerings from this collaboration."
It'll be interesting to see what they're working on.
I really, really respect Splash Damage for their work with RTCW:ET. I didn't quite like Quake Wars, though, but anyway. Bethesda games have been impressive, but not that fun in my opinion (Morrowind, Oblivion). The partnership sure seems interesting. Maybe SD can help Bethesda with Fallout 3?
Mmm, apocalyptic nazi shooting. Should be interesting.
