Oskari Häkkinen, head of franchise development at Remedy Entertainment, has confirmed the existence of the PlayStation 4 'Orbis' and the Xbox 8, calling both a 'quantum leap' from current consoles.
Häkkinen, who is a very high-level exec at the company which created Max Payne and Alan Wake, had this to say: "Currently, we are working with a relatively small team on a next-gen project. One question you always ask yourself in this phase is: can the upcoming consoles really be so much better compared to the current gen? I can rest assure you, they are. It is a quantum leap."
The exec allegedly noted that Remedy currently has a full team of 20 working on the next-gen title.
Each of the consoles are expected to launch in late 2013, although neither Sony nor Microsoft has even confirmed their existence.
