People Can Fly, the Polish video game studio behind popular titles like Bulletstorm and Outriders, has signed a production agreement with Sony Interactive Entertainment to develop a prototype for a new game. The project, currently known only as "Project Delta," was officially announced on March 13.
According to the announcement, People Can Fly will be working on a game based on intellectual property (IP) owned by Sony. The collaboration follows a "work-for-hire" model, which means the Polish studio is being contracted to develop the game for Sony, who will maintain ownership of the IP and provide agreed-upon payment for the work.
The development process has been organized into stages or milestones, with Sony funding the initial prototype phase.
This partnership reflects People Can Fly's shift in business strategy since January 2023, which focuses on more collaboration opportunities with major industry partners like Sony. The company announced at that time that work-for-hire projects would become a key part of their approach moving forward.
The Polish developer is currently juggling multiple high-profile projects. As reports confirmed recently, People Can Fly is also working with Microsoft and The Coalition as a co-development partner on Gears of War: E-Day.
Given People Can Fly's expertise in developing shooter games, some fans believe the project Delta could be related to dormant Sony franchises like SOCOM, Killzone, or Resistance. However, no official confirmation has been provided regarding the specific IP being used.
The project is currently in its prototype stage, and its future development will depend on Sony's decision to proceed beyond this initial phase.
