Been wondering where Ninja Theory<\/a> ran off to after finishing up the hit PS3 exclusive Heavenly Sword<\/em>? Yeah, me too!<\/p>\n

Well, the UK-based dev house has resurfaced in the news today attached to an unnamed “original new IP” currently in development for PS3 and Xbox 360 for release sometime in 2010 by Namco Bandai. That’s all we know at the moment, but more details are said to be on the way in the coming months. Don’t really need to know much more myself. Heavenly Sword<\/em> remains one of my favorite games this generation — damn all the haters saying it’s too short! — so anything new from Ninja Theory has my undivided attention.<\/p>\n

Read on for official comments from Namco Bandai and Ninja Theory about the partnership.<\/p>\n
