Gearbox Software and Blackbird Interactive showed a trailer today confirming that Homeworld 3 is in development. They also said that Blackbird is raising money for the game on the Fig crowdfunding service.

Blackbird’s founder is Rob Cunningham, the original art director for Homeworld. Relic Entertainment developed this sci-fi real-time strategy game in 1999, and Sierra published it. Homeworld 2 came out in 2003, and Sierra published it as well. Gearbox Software, the maker of Borderlands 3, now owns the intellectual property, and it will be the publisher.
