Last week Microsoft celebrated a Direct developer which left us with pleasant surprises. The most striking, due to the media coverage of his character, is that of Indiana Jones and the Great Circlefrom MachineGames, which has dedicated itself in recent years to refining one of the world’s most famous franchises Identification software: Wolfenstein. But what if she wasn’t the only one coming back in the near future? We have Earthquake back?
Without a doubt, id Software is one of those companies that have left us an indelible legacy in the history of video games, with several sagas so extraordinary that many yearn for their return in one way or another. Two of them, like Loss Yes Wolfenstein (you know, if you blink you’ll miss everything), they already have practically guaranteed continuity thanks to Bethesda’s work over the last few years, so we just need them to start giving some love to Earthquake.
Does the X mark the spot Professor Jones?
It was during this Developer Direct, but especially after its completion, that users decided to look for evidence of possible winks from Bethesda that they could let us know that we will hear from any franchise. And the result of these investigations brought us a result which will also surprise the most veterans of the place: Earthquake could be back with a sort of sixth opus.
As you can see in the image captured from the video of Indiana Jones and the Great Circlespecifically from the blackboard where Dr. Jones wrote things, this is what could make us understand that it is a fragment of the word that appears. TRAKE 6specifically UP TO 6. Of course, you will think that it is too much to imagine that he is referring to the franchise of shooters from id Software, but even if you’re right, there’s another thing that seems obvious that points in the same direction and is just below it.
And as we told you, just below you can see the broad outline of what it looks like the classic logo of the saga Earthquake, which is nothing other than a sort of semi-circle with a vertical element arranged at the bottom, as you can see just above. Which would make it very clear that MachineGames meant what it meant. You don’t think so?
Should the next match be Earthquake 6?
The saga of the game Earthquake It does not have a fifth part as such, although it does have a version which, argumentatively, is in this position. After Earthquake I and II arrived III which was purely multiplayer and therefore told no story, so it was Earthquake IV the one who took up this narrative line from the second. But it wasn’t until 2007 that he arrived Earthquake Warswhich once again took the pulse of the original narrative arc and which Bethesda surely considers as a fifth part in its own right.
It would therefore be logical that now the boys ofMachine games? would perhaps have in mind to develop Earthquake 6 and, for now and until there is more information, leave us with honey on our lips for such a clue appeared in the video of Indiana Jones. Do you think it will be like this?
