Bizarre Creations, best known for the Project Gotham series of racing games, has signed a publishing deal with Sega to create a new next gen franchise.

Some might say that Project Gotham was born out of the ashes of MSR, a title Bizarre Creations did for Sega on the Dreamcast. So it's interesting that the two companies have chosen to work together again roughly five years after MSR was released.

Nothing is known of the new game, though Bizzare's website says that it will be multiplatform.

"We are actively seeking partnerships with the world's best developers to create brand new franchises and re-create new games from existing SEGA IP," said Naoya Tsurumi, CEO of SEGA America and SEGA Europe. "We could not be happier that Bizarre Creations, a world-leader in successfully combining gameplay and technology, chose SEGA as their publishing partner to create a multi-platform blockbuster for the next-generation."

"We are privileged to be working with SEGA again," said Martyn Chudley, Managing Director of Bizarre Creations. "With their passion for games and forward-thinking approach, they are the ideal partner to make the most of our new concept."
