Using the buzzwords ‘combat’ and ‘strategy’, a Senior Level Designer at Microsoft has announced that the big M is working on a ‘large franchise’ to work with Natal.
It is so far unknown as to what this franchise could be. In recent news, Natal has been announced to be having a five year lifespan. It has also been rumored that the full name could be revealed at E3 (Natal is only a codename).
Here is the full listing:
No Strings or Controllers Attached. Introducing Project Natal, a revolutionary new way to play: no controller required. See a ball? Kick it, hit it, trap it or catch it.
