You can see more of our hunt for Homeworld in the latest episode of The Eurogamer TV Show. Relic's original Homeworld released on PC in 1999, with a sequel following in 2003.Įbbert added: "Homeworld's always been dear to our heart it's what put us on the map, it was our first product, and I think it will always have a special place in our hearts."
"It depends how you count whether you use the old math or the new math." He declined to explain the difference. General manager Tarrnie Williams admitted there were "three or four" titles in the works at Relic. The former because it gives you a powerful planet right off the bat the latter for the long-term greater overall potential when the three planets get terraformed. You'd either want one of the class-16s or the Kryseth system. Three announced games are in development at Relic: Dawn of War II, Company of Heroes: Tales of Valor and Company of Heroes Online, being co-developed with Shanda for the Asian market. A single class 16 planet with varying astroid count and occasional durantium. Homeworld 3, obviously, I'm not at liberty to tell you anything about. He replied: "As it always has - behind closed doors. We also tried it on with Company of Heroes: Tales of Valor designer Chris Degnan, asking him how Homeworld 3 was looking.
We'll see what happens in the future," Dawn of War II lead designer Jonny Ebbert told us.Īsked whether it was one of the studio's current projects, Ebbert said: "There's always that chance." And are they excited about showing it to the world? "Yes, very, very!" he chuckled. "We're really happy the IP has made its way home, and yeah, we're definitely looking at it.
Speculation that THQ-owned Relic was working on a new version emerged last year with the news that the US publisher had acquired the franchise rights from Vivendi. For fans of Homeworld it looks like the rumours could be true - Relic Entertainment has dropped a huge hint that it's working on a third instalment in the space-based RTS series.ĭuring a recent visit to the Canadian studio's offices in Vancouver, which you can see right now on Eurogamer TV, we quizzed senior team members on the existence of Homeworld 3.
