While From Software is still working on post-launch downloadable content for Dark Souls III, the Japanese company is already working on several other titles.

In an interview with IGN, From Software president Hidetaka Miyazaki teased “several” of the new games for the company:


“So there are several titles that we are currently working on,” Miyazaki said to IGN. “Some of those are dark fantasy, some of those could be a mech [game] – that’s one thing. The second thing is that one of the new titles I’ve been working on will probably comply with the expectations from the fans in straightforward manner.”

Miyazaki was then asked directly if the mech game was a new Armored Core title, to which Miyazaki firmly replied, “Yeah, we’re already working on Armored Core.”

“The last thing is that another title will probably be a little bit weird. When we actually announce the title, probably fans will react with ‘oh, what the hell is this very weird game that Miyazaki has created?’”

Miyazaki teased the weird game a bit further:

“So when I say weird, I mean that the genre we’re trying to try might be a little bit weird. Not only that, but all the other actual game content might be a little bit weird, yes.”

Finally, when asked when fans could expect the three new games to finally launch, Miyazaki said the studio has “several obstacles to overcome” prior to releasing the games. He also added that “we’re not sure how many more years we need to build those,” but promised that he is hopeful to making an announcement in the future.

The most recent game in the Armored Core series, Armored Core: Verdict Day (featured above), launched back in 2012 for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.
