JoWooD Productions today announced that it will solicit proposals from independent game developers to create a new action RPG title based on one of the company's established brands.

Though the publisher did not specify which of its properties, it did suggest that the franchise is "renowned for an epic background story as well as exceptional graphics and polish."

Properties held by JoWooD include the Gothic, Painkiller and Spellforce series, with a new Gothic title already on the way. The unknown project is aimed for release on the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC, reflecting the studio's newfound commitment to consoles.

Interested parties must contact JoWooD and fax a non-disclosure agreement to the company via information detailed on its web site.
