Leak Claims TimeSplitters 4 Is In Development Already Has Playable Builds 1 November 2019 by Lara Jackson A new rumour has surfaced that claims that the TimeSplitters franchise is getting a revival, with a fourth game apparently in development. The rumour stems from a Reddit user named MrJaxerino, who claims to have some info not only on TimeSplitters 4, but also on Dead Island 2.

Take the “news” with a pinch of salt).ADVERT ADVERT In a post, the user writes: “It may be already known but Dambuster Studios, the developer working on Dead Island 2, is also in the early stages of development on a TimeSplitters 4. I don’t know much beyond that it is early in development but still has some playable builds. It will be released sometime after Dead Island 2.” Credit: THQ Nordic The rumour does seem to align with THQ Nordic’s investor report from earlier this summer. It was announced at the time that TimeSplitters creator Steve Ellis was working to “help plot the future course” of the IP.ADVERT ADVERT From THQ Nordic's financial report– Volition is developing a new Saints Row game– Dead Island 2 is being developed by Dambuster Studios (Homefront: The Revolution)– Timesplitters creator Steve Ellis is back to "help plot the future course" of the IPhttps://t.co/TckEgunGRA pic.twitter.com/xa5tXlg2mm- Nibel (@Nibellion) August 14, 2019 If this is true then there’s going to be a lot of happy people out there. We haven’t had a TimeSplitters game for a darn long time. The supposed-leaker also went on to gift us some potential news on Dead Island 2. “Dead Island 2 is still in development by THQ Nordic (which we already knew). The new information I learned from a developer on the game is that the team is looking to target a 2020 release to launch alongside the PS5 and Xbox Scarlett,” wrote the leaker.ADVERT ADVERT Credit: THQ Nordic “Also, the team is also apparently working on some new gore technology that utilizes ‘sub polygon displacement.’ I am in no way an expert on these things but that is what I was told. Finally, as a kind of obvious statement, the team at THQ Nordic does have PS5 dev kits and they do in fact look like the leaks.” Whether or not there’s any meat to these suggestions remains to be seen.
