He joined The Verge in 2019 after nearly two years at Techmeme.Outer Wilds developer Mobius Digital is working on a new game, but it might be a very long time before we hear anything about it, the studio’s head of production tells The Verge.“It’s going to be quite awhile before we have any news or hints about our next game,” says Jackie Kreitzberg. “Likely on the order of years.” The studio also doesn’t plan to share “public development logs” in order to “preserve the mystery of the next game.”In 2021, Mobius released the Echoes of the Eye expansion for Outer Wilds, which Kreitzberg says is the game’s last. “We’re excited to make something new.”RelatedEchoes of the Eye injects a mystifying and scary microcosm into Outer WildsI reached out to Mobius after seeing Outer Wilds patch notes spotted by Rock Paper Shotgun that said the team is “hard at work on our next game.” But while that was the first I had heard of a new game, Kreitzberg notes that the studio confirmed it was in the works after last year’s resignations at Annapurna Interactive.
