When Team Bondi closed its doors a number of staff moved to Miller’s KMM. The Mad Max filmmaker called McNamara a ”brilliant mind”. This new game will match L.A. Noire in size.
The only thing Brendan McNamara would reveal about his new game is that it’s based off ”one of the great untold stories of the 20th Century”, and similar in scope to L.A. Noire.
The Australian Financial Review reports that director Miller has ”also acquired the rights to Team Bondi founder Brendan McNamara’s next game, Whore Of The Orient.” That means development is mostly certainly going to take place at KMM. ”Multi-platform, that’s the thing,” said Miller, describing how film and game ‘become one’.
”Create once; publish many times, on multiple platforms. You create a world and then you go in to all the different platforms - your iPhone, your iPad, on the net,” he added. A Mad Max game is in the works and would have been handled in Sweden but after Miller saw Team Bondi, he appears to have chosen a new host.
”What’s fascinating, though, is that Team Bondi immediately went to work on Happy Feet Two. People can move from a game to a movie and be completely at home, because it’s the same skills, process - the same game.” Team Bondi closed after it went bankrupt, which occurred because publishers were put off by allegations of ‘poor work conditions’.
