Avni Yerli (Co-Founder of Crytek) Mentions TimeSplitters 4

Avni Yerli mentions TimeSplitters 4 to Now Gamer,

Obviously Timesplitters, historically, was for them [Crytek UK] an important IP. From our perspective we always had a lot of fun playing Timesplitters – Timesplitters 2 was amazing fun. Crytek and Crytek UK are interested in the IP; we are thinking about it but we’re trying to decide what we could do best with the IP, where we could bring it. There are no concrete plans yet.

That’s a good idea! [laughs] There are indeed a lot of games doing it but we haven’t thought about that yet. But it’s a good idea.

We can hope TimeSplitters 4 is put into proper development soon.
