Epic Games working on new IP

Could possibly be related to the Samaritan tech demo.

Polygon reports from GDC that Epic Games' lead animator Jay Hosfelt spoke of a new unnamed IP during a panel named "Animation Bootcamp: Animation Prototyping for Games" at the Conference. Hosfelt talked about how the developer is shaping their new game without a publisher.

Hosfelt mainly talked about Epic's new prototyping practices and this new game was used as an example. The artwork shown bears resemblences of the Unreal Engine 4 Tech Demo "The Samaritan" (first shown 2011), and Epic have a long tradition of first showing games as tech demos.
