Almost had a stroke. I thought MS had bought Arkane seeing that picture.

Honestly though. I'd love them to bring back Brute Force. Obviously an improved version. But there aren't enough squad games like that anymore.

Highly unlikely due to Phil Spender hating the Brute Force IP. However I've always thought instead of using the Gears IP for Gears Tactics, they should've rebooted Brute Force as a AAA turn based tactics game and completely reimagined the characters, universe, and lore.

Isn't the catch with Banjo that Gregg Mayles won't let anyone make a sequel unless they come up with something completely innovative?

I'd like to see Rare do another Sports game.

Also does Elder Scrolls count as dormant? Haven't had a mainline game for like 10 years now.

Day of the Tentacle. Arkane? Machinegames? Tango Gameworks? Yes.

Microsoft needs to ring up Randy Pitchford and relieve Gearbox of the Duke Nukem IP. Give it to Machine Games lol.

I don't know if I would prefer a Perfect Dark game from Machinegames, or from Arkane. But I rather see Arkane continue to come up with their own thing.

I'd like Rare to make a pure Banjo Kazooie game. I enjoyed Banjo-kazooie: nuts and bolts but the vehicle aspect of it detracted from how much fun the platforming was.

Banjo-Kazooie with old school aesthetic, music and level design but with more modernized movement a la Odyssey. Banjo was never super fun to control.

Freelancer/Starlancer - space combat genre definitely needs some love.
Quake - the most obvious choice.

Unlikely unless Activision plays nice.

Following ZeniMax Media's acquisition of id Software, the rights to the series have been disputed between both id and Raven Software; Raven's parent company Activision holds the developing rights, while id holds the publishing rights to the first three games. Until both companies come to an agreement, neither will be able to make another installment in the series.

I want to see MachineGames do some kind of spiritual successor to Crimson Skies in sections of a new Wolfenstein game that blends those two universes and makes them one. Keep the Wolfenstein name and branding, because it is much stronger, but include some Crimson Skies lore and have a nice blend of flying/dog-fighting sections and the traditional Wolfenstein gameplay. I actually think it would break up the gameplay nicely. Obviously, it would be a bit expensive, but Xbox proved today they aren't afraid to flash that cash.

Prey 2 is a given. The first one was amazing.

This is a cheat since Elder Scrolls isn't dormant, but I want a full fat Morrowind remake
