G.I. Joe: Snake Eyes Game Promises Dark, Open-World Adventure from Arkham Veteran

Excitement is building around the new G.I. Joe: Snake Eyes game, which appears to be designed as an open-world experience. Recently, we shared that Ames Kirshen, a prominent figure behind the Batman: Arkham series, had begun development on a game featuring the iconic G.I. Joe ninja, Snake Eyes. A recent job listing has unveiled additional insights about the project from the studio, indicating their ambitious plans.

The studio is actively seeking exceptional talent to form its development team for their inaugural multi-platform, AAA project that aims to provide a fresh and modern approach to the G.I. Joe Universe, highlighting the beloved character of Snake Eyes.

This upcoming AAA title is shaping up to mirror the Batman: Arkham trilogy, with hints that it will also embrace an open-world format. Evidence for this lies in the requirements for team members, specifically seeking experience in Open-World or Sandbox project development.

It may take a significant amount of time before any concrete visuals or gameplay footage are revealed, and while we can speculate about its potential release on new-generation consoles, the idea of an open-world adventure featuring Snake Eyes, crafted by a producer associated with Batman: Arkham City, is certainly enticing. In a recent discussion, Hasbro's Dan Ayoub noted that the game would take a darker approach, suggesting it's not the typical G.I. Joe experience, which only adds to the anticipation.

So what do you think about this upcoming project?
