The creator of both the Smash Bros series and popular Nintendo character Kirby is working on a brand new title for Nintendo, it has been confirmed.

Kotaku reports that Masahiro Sakurai’s new studio Sora Ltd, which was founded last month, is now officially a first party Nintendo developer, and is already hard at work on its first title – Project Sora.

Nintendo owns 72 per cent of the company, which currently employs 30 members of staff and is recruiting for more.
