Gamasutra is reporting that Factor 5, currently hard at work on the PLAYSTATION 3 exclusive Lair, may be revisiting the Turrican franchise.
Factor 5 head honcho Julian Eggebrecht tells interviewer Brandon Sheffield of the company's plans to revisit the Commodore 64 and SNES classic, taking the concept into the third dimension.
We've been concepting quite a bit internally. That's another universe creation thing. I was looking at Metroid Prime's reinventing of a franchise that had been out there for quite awhile, and we're facing the same thing with Turrican.
Eggebrecht's comparisons to Metroid Prime personally get me excited for another Turrican game, but I'm sure there are many of you who might feel quite the opposite.
