Treasure is working on a "highly requested" title, it has announced.

The company, which is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year, previously developed Ikaruga, Radiant Silvergun, and Wario World in collaboration with Nintendo.

In a Tweet, the company said "On June 19, 2022, Treasure Co., Ltd. celebrated its 30th anniversary!

"This year, the 30th anniversary, we are working hard to announce the highly requested 'that' title. We look forward to your continued support of Treasure."

Treasure's last releases were a duo of 3DS games in the Gaist Crusher series. Prior to this, the company had been prolific during the PlayStation 2 era of console gaming, developing 12 titles between 2000 and 2006.

It's unknown whether the game that Treasure intends to announce is a wholly original IP or a revisiting of one of the titles that they worked on in collaboration with Nintendo.

Cult N64 game Sin and Punishment received a sequel in 2009 for the Wii, but the series has been dormant since.

The company is understood to now consist of fewer than 10 employees, primarily handling re-releases of their classic titles, so it's possible that this will simply be a collection.

However, if this is to be a sequel to a classic Treasure IP, Ikaruga seems to be the most popular choice, based on responses to Treasure's tweet.

I honestly thought they were defunct at this point. I wonder what went wrong with them, I guess mismanagement? The quality of their games was always there so the lack of output/silence over the past decade has been baffling.

Guardian Heroes on the Saturn was awesome. Treasure used to be one of the best

Ikaruga was iconic, so I'm interested!

I love treasure. Just to reminisce, if I had to rank some of their titles I've played:

Gradius V
Guardian Heroes
Ikaruga
Gunstar Heroes

Thinking about it, I have quite a few of their titles that I have not played yet:

Radiant Silvergun
Dynamite Headdy
Advance Guardian Heroes
Silpheed: The Lost Planet
Sin and Punishment
Wario World
Astro Boy

Games that I played of theirs that I thought were just O.K.:
Silhouette Mirage
Mischief Makers

I would love for a new update to one of those first four, but this also reminds me that I need to play some of their other titles gathering dust on my shelf.

Hell yeah hope they're making another Ronald McDonald game

A new Sin & Punishment would be at the top of my list from them.
