TimeSplitters Comeback? Ex-Free Radical Design Team Teases Secret Project with Artwork Sneak Peek!

Former folks from the now-closed Free Radical Design, the brains behind the legendary TimeSplitters series and part of the Embracer Group, are giving us a sneak peek into a secret project.

The revelation comes straight from character artist Alfred Turner, who excitedly tweeted that they’ve got the green light to share some artwork from their Free Radical Design days. If you’re curious, check out their ArtStation profile—it’s loaded with concept art showcasing a bunch of mysterious characters from this hush-hush project.

 

 

But wait, there’s more! Other ex-crew members are joining the party. Mark Normington, a former Senior Artist, is dropping concept art bombs featuring various in-game weapons he cooked up during his time at Free Radical Design.

Now, the big question: what’s this secret art project all about? Well, hush-hush as it is, whispers have been floating around that Free Radical Design was cooking up a new TimeSplitters game back in 2021. The characters and weapons scream a wild mix of themes and eras—from World War II vibes to futuristic sci-fi. Classic TimeSplitters time-travel stuff, right?

And oh boy, the TimeSplitters fan club is buzzing with excitement! One fan couldn’t help but praise Turner’s character models, saying they nail that signature TimeSplitters vibe perfectly.
