Alan Wake developer Remedy Entertainment is looking for a few new staffers in its quest to create a "groundbreaking AAA console project," a job listing has revealed.

The listing also notes Remedy's desire to take its artificial intelligence and character and enemy behavior technology "to the next level."

"You will be working on the next iteration of Remedy's in-house engine that was previously used in Alan Wake and Alan Wake's American Nightmare," the listing discovered by Gamerzines describes.

It's unclear what the project will be, but we're holding out hope for a true sequel to Alan Wake. The writer's adventure is set to continue in downloadable form with the February launch of Alan Wake's American Nightmare, exclusively on the Xbox Live Arcade. Alan Wake is also set to make his PC debut later this year.

      Jax Stain, the story of a lone nerd hero who lost it all. He must brave the long days and crowded show floor of E3 in search of the truth; who dropped his smart phone into the deep fryer. Action! Adventure! Romance! Slow-motion dodging maneuvers! SUMMER 2014!

      I'd heard they were going to be doing LA Noir style facial capture for this.
