When Microsoft and Xbox introduced layoffs numbering within the thousands earlier this yr, it meant the top for an entire bunch of upcoming sport initiatives. Many studios had been pressured to downsize, and a few shuttered completely, in consequence. Fortunately, some enterprising builders are turning the unhealthy information into one thing optimistic.
A gaggle of former devs from ZeniMax On-line Studios, which made The Elder Scrolls On-line and scrapped looter shooter Blackbird, have banded collectively to type a brand new firm referred to as Sackbird Studios. Maybe unsurprisingly, the staff goes for the employee-owned, self-funded route. “With no exterior traders and full artistic management, the staff is concentrated on constructing nice video games—on their very own phrases,” the announcement states.
Proper now, the senior staff numbers fewer than ten people, together with CEO Lee Ridout and COO David Worley. Sackbird is already in energetic improvement on its first mission, however the crew is not sharing any particulars apart from that the sport will probably be out there on each PC and consoles.
