High Moon developing Bourne title for Sierra

Sierra Entertainment has revealed that High Moon Studios is currently developing Robert Ludlum's Bourne Conspiracy for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.

The publisher signed the rights to create games based on Ludlum's novels back in 2005, with this first title due for release next summer.

"With Robert Ludlumâs The Bourne Conspiracy we are not just basing a game on Ludlum's franchise, we are building upon the universe he introduced with The Bourne Identity," commented Peter Della Penna, president of High Moon Studios.

"High Moon has collaborated closely with Mr. Ludlumâs estate holders, the guardians of his creative vision, since the day we began to develop the game. The goal of that collaboration has been to create a videogame that takes inspiration from known elements within the Bourne universe, elements that have captivated more than a quarter of a billion people around the world, with original story and game play that establishes a signature Jason Bourne game experience," he added.

The game will be shown to the press for the first time next month at the E3 Media Summit.
