The team has recently announced the future arrival of the new IP focused on vampires.
I passed the rumors regarding the new IP on which Arkane Studios, a developer already known for working on titles such as Prey and the saga Dishonored, would be at work have followed one another, without however leading to actual revelations. The aura of mystery has recently been thinned, thanks to a statement made by the Xbox News Twitter account.
The latter took advantage of his space on the platform to share, in a few lines, some details about the new project of the development team, currently entitled “Omen”. According to the few lines, published attached to an image with a short list of aspects of the future title, the game will develop in a dark and gloomy atmosphere.

Arkane Studios will use the dark shades of the game to develop a theme that, already through other titles released previously, books and films, has been described in different forms: the undisputed protagonists will in fact be the vampires, fascinating yet terrifying beings, eager to obtain the greatest amount of blood as possible and achieve their ultimate goal.
Equally important within the game will be the exploratory component. According to the tweet, the latter will take place in space and will take inspiration from other titles, including the signed game Mobius Digital Outer Wilds and the known No Man's Sky.
At the moment, unfortunately, the details described in the lines published on the platform have not yet received confirmations of any kind. The news is therefore to be taken with a grain of salt, especially given that the title has a potential release date set for 2022. The most acclaimed hypothesis would lead to think that Arkane Studios is keen to show a little more detail on the new IP Omen at E3 next month, probably via a CGI video.
