According to a recent report NVIDIA is taking on 2008 by signing a new video game to its developer relations program. The game, "THEY," is a mystery first-person shooter developed by Metropolis Software. August 2007 is when the developer relations team over at NVIDIA "fell" for THEY. The game is not due out until 2009 but it promises to be top notch next-gen
material.

NVIDIA's report reveals that German full service provider IMC has joined the company's "The way it's meant to be played" program after only ten months of THEY development. The title has become part of this prestigious program thanks to its innovative technical and gameplay features.

Phil Wright, Head of Content Business Development EMEAI of NVIDIA: "Our content development team constantly research the development community for new and innovative titles and THEY has been on our radar for some time. This is one of the earliest points in the development cycle when a game has joined NVIDIA's "The way it's meant to be played" program, which gives you an idea of how excited we are about its potential. Even in this short time IMC and Metropolis have demonstrated proof of a professional approach and a trendsetting concept for the future. We are happy to have signed this title, which is already promising great things at such an early stage. THEY will be a real highlight for our new and upcoming graphics boards."

IMC's Head of Communication Ingo Horn: „We are happy to join the exclusive circle of TWIMTBP developers. NVIDIA's trust in a European product paid off our efforts and long hours during the development of a top title in the overcrowded market of FPS games. NVIDIA's tech support will further enhance the technical aspects of THEY, so we are able to release a triple A mystery FPS in 2009, which will present future gamers with the best graphics boards of tomorrow!"

THEY is being described as boasting a "coherent concept, interesting gameplay features and high end graphics (DX 10 ready)," being set for a release only on next-gen hardware sometime during 2009.
