Games developer Factor 5 has hinted that it hopes it can still find a publisher for its Superman title following the closure of its partner Brash Entertainment.

Although the studio never officially revealed it was working on a new Superman game, Factor 5 president Julian Eggebrecht made subtle comments about it to MTV Multiplayer.

“We are working on several projects, both multi-platform as well as single-platform titles for the Wii which you will hear a lot more about very soon,” Eggebrecht said.

“One of our large-scale multi-platform projects was started with Brash because it is a dream property for us, hasn’t been given its dues in gaming since the Atari 2600, and has a huge universe to draw from.

"It also is a long-term project because we were not wiling to compromise quality at all from the start and make this into what we as fans, and hopefully every fan of the property – movies old or new, comic-book, or TV – wants to play.

“If we have delivered the ultimate fantasy fulfilment in a galaxy far, far away, this one certainly is intended to do the same for a completely different universe. With that said, things are obviously in flux and we hope that the game proves to be as indestructible as our hero.”

Factor 5 is most well known for its work on the acclaimed Star Wars: Rogue Squadron series, though its PS3 debut Lair didn’t win any praise.
