Until now we were accustomed to the fact that Playground Games and The Initiative were the new Microsoft studios that are doing all kinds of incorporations, the latter recently incorporated one of the senior environment artists of God of War, but Now it is Ninja Theory who signs one of Naughty Dog's environment designers, creators of Uncharted and The Last of Us. The British team reinforces its workforce to face the development of Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2.
Through the forums of NeoGaf it has been revealed that Andrew Watkins, until a couple of months ago a member of Naughty Dog, has joined the Ninja Thery team as an environment designer
After his acquisition by Microsoft, he was surprised that the first Ninja Theory project was Bleeding Edge, an online multiplayer brawler very different from his last game. It was not until the presentation of Xbox Series X, at the gala of The Game Awards 2019, when the studio announced Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 through an impressive cinematic trailer. We will still have to wait a while to see it on the street, it is still in the early stages of development.
