Something big is brewing in the world of first-person shooters, and it’s coming from some of the most experienced minds in gaming.
A team of former Sony and Activision veterans — developers who’ve worked on genre-defining hits like Call of Duty, The Last of Us, and God of War — have come together under the studio That’s No Moon to build what might be one of the most ambitious FPS titles we’ve seen in a while.
While the game hasn’t been officially revealed or named yet, early details from internal leaks, job listings, and industry insiders are painting a clear picture: it’s a military-themed shooter that blends Call of Duty-style combat with a massive, open-world setting. Think tightly polished firefights, explosive action, and cinematic storytelling — but instead of being locked into narrow, linear missions, players will have the freedom to explore, plan, and engage on their own terms.
The game is being developed in Unreal Engine 5, which means it’s expected to push boundaries visually and technically. From highly detailed character animations to massive, immersive environments, the team’s goal is to create a living, breathing world where every decision matters — all while keeping the heart-pounding adrenaline of a traditional FPS intact.
What really sets this project apart is the pedigree of the team. That’s No Moon isn’t just any indie studio — it’s made up of developers who’ve helped shape some of the most critically acclaimed and commercially successful games of the past decade. That includes leads from Naughty Dog, Infinity Ward, Santa Monica Studio, and more. With that level of experience, the bar is set sky-high.
Fans and industry watchers are already buzzing about the possibilities. Could this be the next big step for military shooters? The genre has long been dominated by franchise formulas, and this new project could offer a refreshing blend of freedom and intensity that hasn’t been seen before.
As of now, there’s no official trailer, release window, or title, but the game is expected to release on PC and current-gen consoles, including the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
The project is still under wraps, but with a studio like this behind it — and such a bold vision in play — it’s one that’s definitely worth keeping an eye on.
