Some potentially exciting news for you here: former DriveClub and Motorstorm leads are heading up a brand new Liverpool-based development team -- and they're working on an all-new sci-fi property. Named Wushu Studios, the outfit's still in the process of hiring talent and expanding, but it probably won't be too long until we hear more. In the meantime, you can find the company's official site through here.

As for the aforementioned sci-fi project, there aren't really any details to go on just yet, but the developer does reveal that it's using Unreal Engine 4. Studio lead Alan McDermott comments: "We firmly believed in the idea that our initial concepts needed to be gamepad experiences as quickly as possible, so we turned to Unreal Engine for its amazing rapid prototyping capabilities. This approach has helped us figure out which of our concepts would allow us to flex our creative muscle most. It’s definitely not what people will be expecting to see from us; it’s absolutely not a racing game!”

It'll be interesting to see what the team ends up announcing, especially given its pedigree. Does Wushu Studios have your attention? Keep an eye out in the comments section below.
