Namco Bandai America is to publish a new IP from Kung Fu Chaos and Heavenly Sword developer Ninja Theory.

Little was revealed about the Cambridge, UK-based studio’s new title during Namco’s Gamescom conference, other than the fact that it’s due for release on PS3 and Xbox 360 next year.

“This new project pushes our core strengths of rich story-telling, cutting-edge technology and exciting gameplay beyond anything we have created before,” said Nina Kristensen, Ninja Theory’s co-founder and development boss.

Makoto Iwai, Namco Bandai America’s chief operating officer, added: “Ninja Theory’s first title exemplified their incredible talent and ability to deliver a high-quality, cinematic and captivating gameplay experience. With producers from our North American office working closely with such a strong European development studio, we will be able to create a blockbuster title with strong pan-Western sensibilities and appeal for a global gaming audience.”
