PlayStation London Hiring Starts Now!
The roles that PlayStation London Studio is currently hiring for are wide-ranging, spanning production, art, design, QA and tech departments. There are quite a few ‘senior’ and ‘lead’ roles in the mix, too, including a Lead Level Designer and a Senior Gameplay AI Programmer, which suggests that the project is still in the fairly early stages.
Additionally, the Lead Level Designer role needs “experience designing maps for Coop game play (local or online)”. Similarly, the Lead Technical Artist will be working with a “ground breaking proprietary engine” in a role that “offers a unique opportunity to use your creative and technical skill to truly define a next-gen experience and allow us to push the boundaries of possibility.”
It certainly looks like they’ll be covering all areas here then. Since there is no release date or title for the new game, it is therefore likely the game is still in its very early stages. However, it’s always good to keep a close eye on these things, scout them out if you will. In the meantime, check out good news for PlayStation players right here and why not pick up some PlayStation goodies too?
