The classic RTS is apparently getting the treatment by developers according to an informed spy for CVG. The cyberpunk universe is leaving the nineties.
The original was released way back in ‘93 with a follow up in ‘96. Gamers were given the reins of a militant corporation as they led cyborg operatives about the city.
Unfortunately the information stops after ‘EA’ and ‘Syndicate’ - there’s no other juicy bit of water cooler gossip. Starbreeze are the ones who struck the partnership with EA to revive a classic so this could be what they were hinting at.
Ex-Bullfrogian Peter Molyneux has said he would love to revisit Syndicate and Populous but would be more than happy to see it continue on in someone else’s hands.
