Rare to lead the charge

E3 is less than two months away, and while we expect to see new Kinect technology we're all waiting to see the new games, of course. Microsoft UK's Neil Thompson has hinted there'll be a range of brand new titles shown off on the big stage in LA in early June.

I can guarantee that Rare and all of our other studios are looking at what we’re doing on Kinect and coming up with some amazing new experiences that people will love. That’s what we’re focusing on.

Rare manager Scott Henson, as well as pledging the importance of Kinect voice control, has also dropped hints that the studio will be at the frontline of the announcements:

We’ve got E3 coming up, and there’ll be lots of exciting things happening there. As a first party studio, our job is to lead innovation on the platform. We take that seriously, and you’ll see plenty from us in the coming months.

Microsoft is understandably cagey about what exactly will be shown in June, but stay tuned to KINECTaku as we'll bring you all the Kinect news as it happens.
