It looks like a controversial Xbox One game may be getting a sequel on Series X!
It looks like a fairly divisive and controversial Xbox One game may be making a return, presumably via Xbox Series S and Xbox Series X. Last generation the Xbox One didn't have many compelling exclusive games, especially at first. The launch lineup of Xbox One games wasn't very impressive and made worse by the fact that a big exclusive game at launch failed to live up to its expectations. And that game is Ryse: Son of Rome.
Before its release, many were excited for the new IP, largely because of the"next-gen" visuals it boasted. And the game was a looker for the time, but not much else. Upon release, the game garnered a 60 on Metacritic and did not satisfy sales expectations. It was an integral part of what would end up being a slow and messy start for the Xbox One.
Despite all of this, the game had its fans. In fact, over time, it has become a little bit of a cult classic within the Xbox community and an increasingly common example of public opinion of a game changing over time. While many still remember the game negatively, there are plenty who remember it more positively and have been quietly championing a sequel. And it looks like this sequel may finally happen.
Crytek -- the developer behind the game -- recently took to Twitter to announce various job openings. And what game is featured in the accompanying graphic? Ryse: Son of Rome. This is a very peculiar choice if there aren't plans for the franchise, which, as you may remember, was always planned to be a series.Crytek is hiring in almost every department, and with our Global Work-from-Home program, it's never been easier to join our amazing family.
