Ready at Dawn, the developer behind the highly rated God of War PSP titles and the Wii port of Okami is allegedly working on a game for next generation hardware.
According to a job listing on the developer’s main site, the team is crafting a completely new franchise that fits into the third-person action genre. Here’s a full description of the position:
Are you ready to work on an exciting new AAA IP for a Next-Generation home console game system? Ready At Dawn is working on a 3rd Person Action Adventure and is looking for talented, motivated and self-directed developers to join our team.
Unfortunately for Vita owners, it doesn’t look like they’ll be working on a God of War title for the shiny new handheld, as the listing clearly states that the game will be found on a “next-generation home console.” Notice that the listing also implies that the title will be an exclusive, as the description references a singular next-generation console.
While Sony has mentioned that the PS4 is still a ways off, reports like this lead us to question how far away the next generation really is.

Sadly, it doesn’t mean that they’ll be working on the PS4 – it could possibly just be a WiiU exclusive…? Unfortunately the WiiU is coming very soon, and really skews the timeline for “next-gen home consoles” (sort of like HSPA+ being called 4G before LTE is widely available).
So it takes about 2-3 years to develop a game and this hints that they already got a story/Idea for the game we have also heard that some developers have started making next gen games so we will 100% hear about it next year with it being released 2014 that is my prediction (Bookmark this page

Sony still addresses the PS3 as a next-gen system. So there.
