Activision hasn't given up on the music gaming genre.
In an interview with Game Informer, President and CEO Bobby Kotick confirmed the company is set to release a follow up title to its latest turn-table music game DJ Hero.
Kotick was asked about the company's long-term commitment plans to creating new franchises and said a new DJ hero title will be released in 2010.
"We think DJ Hero is a really innovative product. We can't wait for you to see next year's," he said. "That's the thing; we're sticking with it. We'll stick with it and get it right."
"But it's going to be less games, better games. That's our strategy," Kotick added.
Since the title's launch in October, the original DJ Hero has sold over 800,000 units in the U.S., according to NPD. Guitar Hero co-founder Kai Huang said late last year the company expected the title to have
slower initial sales while fans become acquainted to its unique playstyle.
