Obsidian’s next game probably has weapons that outclass a two-handed sword

Like any industry gathering, the Games Developers Conference has its share of cool announcements. Sony is making their own virtual reality headset called Project Morpheus! Epic is switching to a subscription model for the Unreal Engine 4 development kit! Unity 5 was previewed with all sorts of nifty new capabilities! But buried amid the headlines was this head-scratcher: Obsidian Entertainment, the developers behind Pillars of Eternity, is working on a free-to-play tank MMO. Armored Warfare was announced and it looks very familiar.

We’re thrilled to announce Armored Warfare, a new free-to-play massively multiplayer online tactical military video game that puts you in control of some of the most incredible, modern destructive machines to grace a battlefield. Drive modern tanks, armored vehicles and more.

Eurogamer tried to break down the puzzling news, but most of it is speculation because details haven’t been announced.
