Raphael Colantonio left his own studio Arkane in 2017 to focus on new projects, which ultimately led to the founding of Wolfeye Studios. After their first work, Weird West, a second project is now in the works and this should especially please fans of his earlier works.
Since its founding in 1999, Arkane Studios has been synonymous with the immersive sims genre. With titles such as Dishonored and Prey, the game studio has achieved almost legendary status, and this was not least due to the expertise of Raphael Colantonio. He founded the studio but left in 2017. Initially to concentrate on his family, but in 2019 he finally opened a new game company, Wolfeye Studios.

The first work they released was Weird West, which also included elements of Immersive Sims. Wolfeye Studios is currently working on the next project, which will also follow this line. Stick to your craft.
As Raphael Colantonio has now announced via Twitter (yes, X), we will soon be getting the first concrete details about the game. If it’s up to him, fans of his most legendary works will be particularly excited.
We’ll reveal a bit more about our next game in a few days… Fans of the previous 1st person games I was involved with (Dishonored and Prey) will be happy.

We can look forward to seeing what Colantonio and Wolfeye have in store. His resume certainly promises great things. Before joining Arkane, he was already employed at EA. He got his job by winning a contest run by the studio, in which his knowledge of the legendary Ultima series was put to the test.
