Developer Resume Suggests Bandai Namco Is Working on Ridge Racer 8, Unannounced Switch FPS

Bandai Namco may be working on Ridge Racer 8, as well as an unannounced first-person shooter game.

According to a Bandai Namco developer resume on LinkedIn, the unannounced title is an FPS/adventure game, and both it and Ridge Racer 8 are exclusive to Nintendo Switch, according to the listing. IGN has reached out to Bandai Namco for comment.

In a November earnings call last year, Bandai Namco leadership discussed putting more resources towards development of Switch games, as Bandai Namco President Mitsuaki Taguchi acknowledged the three games the company had released on Switch were doing well.

Bandai Namco recently released Dragon Ball FighterZ on other platforms, so be sure to check out IGN's review, which called the pairing of Dragon Ball and fighting game developer Arc System Works "a match made in fighting game heaven." Dragon Ball FighterZ has already shipped 2 million units, and it's the fastest Dragon Ball game in history to do so.
