With EA’s Medal of Honor franchise successfully rebooted, it looks like the publisher is running headlong into sequel mode. A new job listing from Danger Close, the studio formed specifically to develop the Medal of Honor reboot, reveals that it’s already working on a new “unannounced AAA first person shooter title.”

Abandoned by her former allies, the United States is a bleak landscape of walled towns and abandoned suburbs. This is a police state where high school stadiums have become detention centers, and shopping malls shelter armored attack vehicles. A once-free people are now prisoners… or collaborators… or revolutionaries.
