Syndicate Remake Reveal Rumored For Gamescom

Electronic Arts revealed a few years ago that Starbreeze Studios, the developer behind The Darkness and the two Chronicles of Riddick games, was working on the mysterious Project RedLime, said to be based on a franchise that the publisher owned the rights to. It was later revealed by unnamed sources to be a return to the cyberpunk-inspired Syndicate series, though EA has never officially confirmed it.

It looks like confirmation may be coming soon though, perhaps as soon as next week's Gamescom. A now-deleted tweet (via CVG) from Starbreeze's Rickard Johansson read: "Grand moment approaching. The reveal for #Starbreeze and EA's project #RedLime time to meet the press." 

The tweet alone says something, and the fact that it was deleted probably means one of two things: either the reveal was planned and then canned or EA want to try to keep it a secret (too late) until it happens. I'm going to cross my fingers and bet on the latter.
