Warhawk dev to reveal new game "soon"

Starhawk? Mohawk?

The developer behind the Sony-exclusive series Warhawk will reveal its next game "soon".

US studio Lightbox has been working on its next title "for a while", Sony Worldwide Studios boss Shuhei Yoshida told Joystiq.

"The team has been working on something new for a while," he said, "and I wouldn’t be surprised if are able to soon talk about it. But not at this time." Bah.

Last year Lightbox, formed in 2009 by former Incognito staffers, signed a multi-year, multi-game deal with Sony Computer Entertainment America to develop for PlayStation platforms.

What could Lightbox's next game be? In April last year Sony trademarked the name "Starhawk", which suggests the quick-paced third-person multiplayer shooter series is heading into space.

Warhawk has been well supported by fans and Sony alike, and received numerous expansion packs since its August 2007 release, so another entry in the series would come as no surprise.
