Swiss gaming magazine GBase asked Techland what happened to the military shooter Warhound which was announced a few years ago. They've learned that the project is on ice right now but maybe in the future Techland will continue to work on it.
TVGB: There's been quite a bit of chit, and chat, around the water cooler in the last week or so about Techland's future offerings now that Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood has been tagged and released. Dead Island, the game that mixes palm trees, crystal clear waters and zombies, was the first to get inquired about. Thankfully that one is still being worked on, and has even found a publisher. But there's been no word on their other two titles that were announced many years ago but haven't been talked about in quite a while - Warhound, an open-ended first-person shooter, and Chrome 2, the sequel to 2003's sci-fi shooter. We got in touch with Techland to see what was up with these titles and walked away with both good and not so good news.
In 19 days, it'll be two years since Joystiq last heard anything about Call of Juarez developer Techland's open ended FPS, Warhound. So, when they heard last week that the developer was still working on its zombie-infused Dead Island, they shot Techland an email and asked about the game once intended to rival Crysis' graphics.
Polish developer Techland today confirmed to Dutch website Xbox 360 Only that both Dead Island and Warhound will be on display at the Leipzig Games Convention next week. Both games will be shown to the press and new screenshots will be released during Games Convention 2007. The Games Convention 2007 starts on August 22 with a press day, and starting August 23 visitors can play all the new games in Leipzig, until August 26.
