Good news for PlayStation fans: it looks like something big is brewing, with a AAA game on the way. Everything has just been revealed in advance.
Sony strikes again and announces the creation of a brand new AAA studio based in Los Angeles. A recently published job posting for PlayStation confirms the existence of this ambitious project. But who is behind this initiative? And above all: what awaits you?
A confirmation that fuels rumors about PlayStation
Rumors have been circulating for some time about Sony establishing new studios. The job offer for a senior project producer position adds fuel to the fire. The text reminds us of the search for “exceptional” talents who want to join a passionate and creative team. Your mission? Working on an ambitious AAA game for PlayStation.
Even if details are still unclear, so be itMany believe that this studio could be led by Jason Blundell, one of the big names behind Call of Duty Zombies. Blundell, who left Deviation Games in 2022, is a natural candidate for an ambitious project of this nature.
A studio among other secret teams
This studio is not the only secret surrounding Sony's projects. At the same time, an online services team was formed in collaboration with Bungie. This would be tasked with supporting future PlayStation Live Service titles.
Additionally, another secret studio based in San Diego continues to work on existing franchises. The latter would even collaborate with Naughty Dog to develop new projects. All of these efforts show that Sony is doubling down on its behind-the-scenes activities to enrich its PlayStation ecosystem.
The mention of a “large-scale AAA title” in the announcement leaves no doubt: Sony is betting big on this Los Angeles studio. This project could very well be a brand new license or an expansion of an already well-known franchise. There is a lot of speculation, but the specific details remain well-secret for now.
The choice of Los Angeles, an entertainment mecca, is not insignificant. This shows Sony's desire to surround itself with the best talent to deliver an exceptional gaming experience. This studio could become a pillar of PlayStation's strategy in the coming years.
