Obsidian Teases New Mystery Project

Today on Obsidian’s website, a brand new landing page has appeared with the above image: an ouroboros styled like a dragon, wrapped around the number four. Even more enticing are the two quotes underneath:

“What do the words mean?”

“Nothing. The Dirge of Eir Glanfath is sound without form, a lone voice crying out in mourning because it must.”

WHOA.

Clicking the image brings your browser to a spot on the Obsidian Forums labeled, “Project X Speculation & Discussion,” where fans are invited to start guessing what these guys have up their sleeves. Quite clearly, it’s some kinda crazy fantasy THING, but as far as anyone on the forums can guess, it could be a new installment in the Neverwinter franchise, or a brand new IP. Our own Justin Fassino guesses it could be Dungeon Siege 4…and who am I to argue?

I’d like to believe that it’s a medieval version of the Fantastic Four. You know, where the Human Torch and the Thing talk all Chaucer-like while they wear armor and fight goblins and junk. UNLIKELY.

Either way, something kooky’s brewing over there…are you nerd enough to puzzle it out?

    Hmm… I’m not sure if I’d like them to do another Fallout. I like New Vegas but I liked Fallout 3 more…

    Its not likely that its Fallout 4. Because the whole thing screams fantasy. And the four indicates a sequel; so im gonna say its Dungeon Seige 4.

    A new game in vein with neverwinter nights 2 would be fantastic; I’m just glad they’re still getting work

    C’mon guise. Realistically it’s Dungeon Siege 4.
