We all remember Serious Sam and the first time we got blasted by screaming guys with bombs for heads. We know how absorbed we were the utterly frantic first-person shooting insanity Croteam was able to create, and we're certainly interested in what they're up to now. Today they've announced an untitled new project to be published by Gamecock Media Group, which will apparently release sometime in North America in 2009 for the PC and "specific next-gen consoles," according to the press release. The new game is being built with Croteam's own Serious Engine 3. Please note, this is not Serious Sam 3, but an entirely new intellectual property.

Gamecock was unwilling to reveal any details regarding story, Croteam's motivations for creating a new intellectual property seemingly set in modern wartime, or even the game's setting. Mike did say the title would be "frantic," but we're apparently going to have to wait and see whether that means Call of Duty frantic or Serious Sam frantic.
