Activision-owned development studio Raven Software, teased a few hours ago the return of the Singularity series via the following tweet:

<time pubdate="" class="dt-updated" datetime="2015-03-23T17:01:15+0000" title="Time posted: 23 Mar 2015, 17:01:15 (UTC)">5:01 PM - 23 Mar 2015</time> (https://twitter.com/RavenSoftware/status/580051696090501120)



Singularity received quite strong reviews when it was released in 2010 for the PS3, Xbox 360 and PC, and provided a rather unique twist to the first-person shooter genre.
The tweet gives no additional details, as to what the studio is working on, although a few job postings on the firm’s LinkedIn page (https://www.linkedin.com/jobs2/view/38637971?trk=vsrp_jobs_res_name&trkInfo=VSRPsearchId%3A3794479511427142581373%2CVS RPtargetId%3A38637971%2CVSRPcmpt%3Aprimary) do point that Raven Software’s next title, will be a collaborative project between Raven and another of Activision’s studios.

Raven Software’s recent Facebook post (https://m.facebook.com/singularity/posts/10152755814361299) said,

“From the Time Manipulation Device to the multiple factions in multiplayer, Singularity became a cult hit that continues to have a rabid and vocal fan base. This week is a celebration of all things Singularity.”
A few days back Raven made this tweet:

Raven Software @RavenSoftware (https://twitter.com/RavenSoftware) Follow (https://twitter.com/RavenSoftware)
Raven Software turns 25 this year! Over the next couple of months we’ll be celebrating some of Raven’s past and current titles. #RVN25 (https://twitter.com/hashtag/RVN25?src=hash)
<time pubdate="" class="dt-updated" datetime="2015-03-16T19:17:08+0000" title="Time posted: 16 Mar 2015, 19:17:08 (UTC)">7:17 PM - 16 Mar 2015</time> (https://twitter.com/RavenSoftware/status/577549174595575808)



It could be that the Singularity tweet is indeed just a celebration of the cult classic, and they are reestablishing awareness in order to introduce their new project. They might end up surprising us though and reveal a followup. That would be quite something. There’s always the possibility that they could be working on a Call of Duty title, of course, as the studio has collaborated in many Call of Duty projects in the past.
We will bring you any new information that comes from Raven Software regarding their new project as soon as it becomes available.

Foi um bom FPS, que foi um pouco ignorado pela maioria das pessoas.
Se vier uma sequela, será bem vinda.
Espero apenas que não seja um remaster para consolas apenas com um aumento de resolução e frames por segundo.
