Obsidian Entertainment is currently working on Fallout: New Vegas which is scheduled for release later this year. The developer comprises largely of ex Black Isle Studios veterans, the same team that made the first 2 Fallout games.
The developer is now also working alongside Red Eagle Games to develop a game based on Robert Jordan’s best selling Wheel of Time series.
“The Wheel of Time is one of the greatest and well-received fantasy series of all time,” said Obsidian chief creative officer Chris Avellone. “Games set in Robert Jordan’s universe have the chance to deliver on the epic storylines and the complex characters that the series is known for – and this is one of Obsidian’s strengths. It’s a natural fit.”
It is currently unclear to what extent Obsidian will be involved in the development of the game.
