Speaking to Eurogamer.net Bradley confirmed that Mercury 3 would be the next game coming out of the studio, but admitted that at this time its release platform is undecided.
“Certainly the next thing out of here will be Mercury 3. What platform or platforms it ends up on is still to be decided,” said Bradley. “We still haven’t used up all the ideas we had from the first one, never mind all the things we came up for this one.“
“I think if this does end up being on any of the next-gen platforms, it will be probably along [the Xbox Live Arcade] kind of delivery vector rather than a 25-dollar Blu-Ray disc,” Bradley added. “How are we going to fill 50 gigabytes? How’s anyone?“
Interestingly Bradley revealed that Mercury has always been running on more than one platform at any given time. “It originally started as a PS2 demo. All our in-house tools and libraries are cross-platform,” he said. “Whether any of them will ever see commercial light of day or not is a decision that I don’t get to make.“
We’re getting a bit far ahead of the game though, as Mercury Meltdown, the sequel to Archer MacLean’s Mercury, isn’t scheduled to hit retail until September.
