Two more Rare titles under development for Xbox 360, says Moore

In a recent interview with MTV, Peter Moore has revealed that Microsoft-owned Rare Studios has two additional titles under development for the Xbox 360 console.

Those hoping to discover which games Rare would be adding to its lineup, however, were disappointed: Moore gave no details of the two new titles Rare will be releasing, saying only that the new games had been under development for close to two years.

Microsoft appears to be hoping that Rare’s new titles will attract a broader audience to the Xbox 360 console, with Moore stating that the company hopes to

“leverage Rare’s incredible ability to broaden the demographic that are attracted to the consoles.”

TeamXbox speculates that one of Rare’s two “mystery games” could be a new Banjo-Kazooie game, along with the next installment in the popular “Killer Instinct” series (Killer Instinct III).

The two new Rare titles are due to be announced in Spring 2006, which would coincide neatly with the annual E3 conference and Sony’s rumored PlayStation 3 launch.

Of Rare’s already-announced Xbox 360 titles, Moore told MTV that the action-adventure RPG Kameo: Elements of Power is the 360 launch title he is most proud of.
