Pulling back the curtain

Unbelievably attractive PlayStation Vita exclusive Tearaway is not the only title in development at UK outfit Media Molecule. Indeed, the company's announced that a small team of 15 are working on the papercraft adventure while the rest of the studio focuses its attention on another unannounced project. Did someone say PlayStation 4?

“We're working on a second project right now, and that's very much in an R&D phase," Media Molecule’s Mark Healy told Eurogamer.net. The Guildford-based developer recently spent a whopping £4.1 million on research and development, so it’s safe to assume that whatever the studio is working on is going to be big.

"The focus is Tearaway, but Media Molecule is a lot more than 15 people," chipped in co-founder Alex Evans. “The other project is very much in an early stage and is a toy. You don't need to worry about it."

No, we don’t need to worry about it – but we can’t help getting excited over the possibilities...
