SAEDNEWS: According to reports, Sony has launched a new game development studio in the Los Angeles area.
Recently, a job posting for a Senior Project Producer at a new PlayStation studio in Los Angeles has been released. This could hint at a potential collaboration with Jason Blundell, a well-known game developer.
The job posting on the PlayStation website states that this newly established studio is led by a team of experienced industry leaders and seasoned developers. The main goal of the studio is to create a new AAA-level IP and redefine the development process with an agile and highly efficient approach.
Jason Blundell, known for his impressive work at Treyarch and on the Call of Duty series, left Deviation Games in September 2022. In December 2023, there were reports that he would be leading a PlayStation studio, and rumors suggested he might collaborate with Bungie on an action sci-fi game.
Blundell played a crucial role in the success and popularity of the Zombies mode in the Call of Duty series. He left Treyarch in February 2020 to establish Deviation Games, but the studio was shut down before releasing any games.
There were previous rumors about the recruitment of former Deviation Games employees in a new studio supported by Sony and led by Jason Blundell. This job posting could confirm those rumors.
While the job posting does not provide details about the project, the studio's name, or its leadership, considering Blundell's background and experience in creating high-quality and successful games, his potential collaboration with Sony could signal an ambitious and exciting project.
