As a child of late 80s/early 90s PC gaming, have to say this piqued my interest. Logo on the site matches the old Sierra On-Line logo, but there's also an Activison copyright at the bottom with a callout to Gamescom.

Video is down now but did feature what looked like the opening logo animation for whatever this is.

Is this old news or is there anything pointing at the return of Space/Kings/Police Quests and the like? HD Phantasmagoria remakes?

Sorry if posted/old.

 

[AzureSkies]

Before anyone asks about the whois details, it actually is owned by Activision.

 

[Minions]

Well it says gamescom2014... color me intrigued.

 

[Dlacy13g]

Definitely got my interest peaked.

 

[SabinFigaro]

[Murtrod]

The revival...?

 

[Volkiller]

i imagine they are about to try to reboot the brand because of how popular it used to be or there about to reboot one of there franchises


i new generation is the perfect time for a Rebrand or reboot

[BronsonLee]

No way in hell.

That is the second time I've said that today. I don't know what to believe anymore

 

[XANDER CAGE]

Sierra would be a great b-tier label for lower budget stuff.

[scoobidoo112]

Sierra reboot confirmed. Question is, in name only?

 

[Juice]

Yay! I bet they plan on cashing in on telltale style adventure games wth Sierra IP

 

[GoaThief]

Hello chicken.

Wonder what's in store? Nostalgia overload but can't make any sense of the short video.

 

[Revolutionary]

Hm. Cautiously optimistic.

 

[sn00zer]

Holy shit....woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow

Although it is ACTIVISION so Im hesitant as hell

 

[Joelio13]

Hopefully something cool will come of this

 

[ffdgh]

I'd still be ok with that.

 

[Naminator]

Because they're getting the Dynamix gang back together and making a proper sequel to Tribes 2!

WHOOOOOOOOHHHHHOOOOOOOO!

Spoiler

Probably not, and now I'm sad.......

 

[PhaZZe]

New Call of duty by Sierra!

 

[Sentenza]

Hm. Cautiously optimistic.

Hope for the best and expect the worst.

 

[Soulflarz]

So when I hit the Twitter link I got this.

Excite!

 

[VisceralBowl]

I have no idea what they could be making.

 

[Machinehead]

HYPE!!!

Spoiler

that Activision will manage to crush somehow

I loved most of Sierra games. I just love the kind of games they made and the feel they had.
Please, Phantasmagoria, please.

 

[Sentenza]

They are going to resurrect the Sierra Utilities.

 

[Dizzy-4U]

Cate, is that you?

 

[Afrikan]

don't play with my heart Activision.

 

[Iacobellis]

Maybe?

 

[Takao]

it is time for the return

 

[LiK]

king's quest?

KQ FPS

 

[dhonk]

I mean, its not going to be anything but a studio based on exploiting the Sierra name and not an actual return to form... Right?

 

[Nishastra]

I like how there's a teaser for a goddamned logo

 

[RadarScope1]

$9.99 a pop for poorly done mobile ports of early 80s point and click games.

Hooray for Activision!

 

[SZips]

I sincerely hope it's a sign of new games from the studio like a new Crash Bandicoot game but I'm willing to bet it's just going to be something like remastered or re-releases of their old adventure titles.

Edit: Probably mobile releases of their old adventure games.

 

[Feep]

King's Quest whatever they're on now?!

 

[Bunta]

Metal Arms please. PLEASE

Blizzard Entertainment files/renews trademark for "Metal Arms"

 

[transience]

HD Remaster this, pretty please
