A second ‘humour-based’ Quantic Dream AAA game is reportedly in development
Quantic Dream, the developer behind the recently announced Star Wars Eclipse and Detroit: Become Human, is currently developing a second AAA game alongside Star Wars Eclipse, according to an insider with previous knowledge of Quantic Dream’s plans.
Twitter user @AccNgT, who tweeted screenshots of Star Wars Eclipse days before it was officially revealed at The Game Awards, has claimed that another game, this time being developed by the “core Paris team” is underway at Quantic Dream.

The game is reportedly based on “The Dark Sorcerer” which is a tech demo that Quantic Dream produced for the PS4.
