Edit : Actually, it doesn't mention "revive" or something like that on the job listing. Just says that it's for one of BioWare's most pretigious franchises.
Could be Dragon Age, Mass Effect, etc.

 

[tusk]

Hilarious given Bioware of today doesn't even begin to resemble the studio that made good games

 

[LewieP]

Anthem 2 baby.

 

[Dest]

can't believe they're doing a full blown console sequel to sonic chronicles

 

[Turkoop]

Could also be Dragon Age.

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

Anthem 2... ;).

 

[zombiejames]

Considering their output lately.... ehhhh.... just keep whatever it is in the vault.

 

[Theorry]

Sonic Chronicles ah yeah

 

[MizziPizzi]

Please get Mass Effect back on track!

 

[Zeno]

Shattered Steel sequel incoming.

 

[DrArchon]

Fuck yeah Jade Empire!

 

[Dimajjio]

What's happened to the supposed Mass Effect remasters? Not that I'm complaining. Every day that goes by means it's more likely they will be for next-gen consoles as well.

 

[Linus815]

finally, a new MDK.

 

[Randomly Generated]

Dragon Age VR you cowards!

 

[Mentalist]

MDK3?

 

[BassForever]

They need to revive themselves as a prestigious developer before I see them bungle another game in one of their beloved franchises.

 

[Hanbei]

Will it be gaas, and will it be as well handled as their last game was, that's all I want to know right now.

They never said a word about that, neither did EA.

 

[Detective Pidgey]

Jade Empire is the only right answer.

Right?

 

[kyle mechlachlan]

MDK FTW

 

[HiLife]

Jade Empire the most prestigious franchise ever.

 

[shinobi602]

"Revive" is a strange word to use, and I'm not sure why the article uses it.

 

[Windu]

What unlicensed stuff have they done that hasn't had a sequel recently? They seem to still be releasing their original properties.

 

[Metroidvania]

Jade Empire is the only right answer.

Right?

KOTOR Or bust......

Wait, I dunno if I wanna risk the monkey's paw on that.

But really, 'franchise', to me, either means Mass Effect or Baldur's Gate.

 

[BossAttack]

Give us a proper Mass Effect, cowards!

 

[Cosmic Voyager]

I wish this meant Jade Empire 2, but sadly I know it doesn't :(

 

[kinoki]

Mass Effect, please. But I'd settle for Dragon Age.

 

[Wamb0wneD]

"Revive" is a strange word to use, and I'm not sure why the article uses it.

Probably because Mass Effect was considered dead after Andromeda.

 

[Khanimus]

MDK3, at last

 

[Kaako]

I'm not saying it's Mass Effect, but it's definitely Mass Effect.

 

[-Le Monde-]

Fuck yeah Jade Empire!

Click to shrink...

Jade Empire, there's nothing like it.
How much do I need to beg?

 

[alstrike]

Don't bother if it's not KOTOR or Jade Empire.

 

[Acquiescence]

I've never played Jade Empire but I always wanted to, so rather irrationally, I hope they're referring to Jade Empire here.

 

[Quad Lasers]

Fuck yes let's go baby.

 

[Diarrhea Day-Lewis]

Don't we already know they're making another DA? So I'm guessing they're doing the reboot of KOTOR that's rumored. I'm fine with that. KOTOR got me back into gaming.

I'd love for it to be Jade Empire but there's 0.01% chance of that happening. Would love a KOTOR reimagining that sort of combines the two games.

 

[ThatOneGuy]

Bioware gets no faith from me anymore. They'd really have to come back strong for me to have any hope for them again.

Yeah that's what I wanted to say with my edit. My bad, I forgot to edit the title too.

 

[Jyrii]

Personally don't really care about Bioware games anymore. Their recent games lack soul.

The would need to do one hell of a comeback to gain any interest.

 

[cw_sasuke]

Its Dragon Age and the IP doesnt really need to be "revived" - last one was a GotY candidate and sold well.

 

[Darkstorne]

Genuinely could be KOTOR given recent rumours.

 

[Strike]

Yeah I'll wait and see on that.

 

[XL Hoodie]

Prestigious? Got to be KOTOR right?

 

[Rotobit]

probably Dragon Age is my guess, if it's not necessarily a revival

 

[Lamiafusion]

you mean "looking to kill"

...in all fairness I still want that good Bioware back so I'll be rooting

 

[kurahador]

Anthem A Song Resung

 

[CloudWolf]

Genuinely could be KOTOR given recent rumours.

God, I hope not. There's only one company I trust with KOTOR and it's not BioWare.

 

[Deleted member 49535]

A corpse reviving things? Can BioWare revive themselves? That would be cool.

 

[Tokio Blues]

Mass Effect. It was almost a launching title for Xbox 360, it will be for the XBOX ONE X SERIES

 

[CamberGreber]

Considering the Hype for GoT its probably gonna be Jade Empire.

 

[Bessy67]

If they put out another Mass Effect or Dragon Age I'd probably give it a shot. Andromeda and Inquisition were both okay-ish, and honestly a Mass Effect game with Anthem's movement and combat could be pretty interesting.
