Bungie to announce new game in July?

Halo creator Bungie might finally be ready to lift the lid on its unannounced new project, judging by an update on its site.

A blog post on Bungie.net from community manager Eric Osborne apologised for a lack of recent updates, explaining that he had had his hands full in recent weeks.

"Yup, truth told we have been less and less active on Bungie.net as of late," he wrote.

"Part of that is owed to my aforementioned travel arrangements, but a significant amount of my time is also now being dedicated to other upcoming endeavors that won't make a splash on the front page until Bungie Day closes in around us.

"Unfortunately, that means there are just too many balls in the air for me to juggle without letting a few fall to the ground. More explicit details about those balls in the weeks ahead."

"Bungie Day", when the studio celebrates its strange fascination with the number seven, falls on 7th July every year.

Can't wait that long? Elsewhere in the post, Osborne teased that "breadcrumbs tucked away into the folds of Bungie.net that just might lead to something [Bungie artist Stosh has] been working on for a little bit now."

Bungie has remained tight-lipped regarding its post-Halo Activision project, though speculation has recently pointed towards a sci-fi MMO codenamed Destiny.
