This evening SEGA teased an announcement scheduled for 16 January on their Twitter account and nobody is exactly sure what it could be for. However, Internet super-sleuths may have figured it out and it could be a new Theme Hospital sim.
The tweet contained an image of a lightbulb and a date as seen below. Further poking around reveals a tweet from Two Point Studios who signed to SEGA last March. Two-Point Studios was founded by industry veterans Gary Carr and Lionhead co-founder, Mark Webley, who have worked on Theme Park, Black & White, Theme Hospital, and Fable.

Further poking around by the crew at ResetEra also uncovered a registered a trademark for Two Point Hospital.
16 January is the date to mark in the diaries, and if it is a new hospital sim like Theme Hospital, that means there will be two hospital management games released this year. There’s also Project Hospital from Oxymoron Games.
