GTA grandaddy Leslie Benzies opens a 3rd studio in Budapest, former Crytek Hungary to help on Everywhere

GTA Online mastermind appears to be accumulating studios. Just how large is that this new digital world going to be?

Former GTA producer Leslie Benzies has opened an workplace in Budapest, Hungary, and employed the crew often known as Crytek Hungary earlier than the developer’s mass international closures.

GamesIndustry reviews that is the third location to open since Benzies started incorporating companies all over the place final month.

The crew will be a part of others in Edinburgh and LA to work on Everywhere, some sort of online, open world game.

Given Benzies’s function within the Grand Theft Auto franchise and GTA Online particularly, we’re eager to learn about Everywhere. Former Crytek Hungary boss Kristoffer Waardahl will proceed to steer the Budapest crew, and provided this tantalising touch upon the undertaking:

“To develop and build a beautiful open world game is one of our core passions and it resonates deeply with the team. When we heard Leslie’s vision for the game we jumped at the opportunity to join Everywhere and are delighted to be part of the core team bringing the game alive.”

GTA and Rockstar veteran Matthew Smith, who appears to be head of the three workplace studio, stated the Budapest group’s technical and artistic expertise are each “a great fit for the Everywhere team”.

Crytek Hungary labored on Ryse: Son of Rome, The Collectables and Crysis Warhead.
