Halo, Batman Arkham, Doom devs create brand-new workshop to make “new generation” of story-driven activity games

And do not fret, live solution isn’t in the formula in the meantime

“We have built games for some of the biggest companies in gaming, and now it’s time to take a shot at putting our own personal lightning in a bottle. We want to create something new, innovative and that’s a blast to play,” Hook stated in thepress release (opens in new tab)

“When looking to create a new studio the most critical part of finding the right partner was being aligned on the fundamental goals of having the freedom to take innovative risks and to put the passion of our creators first. This meant that our player experiences came before the business, which itself is a risk. NetEase came to the table with a strong creative first approach; they demonstrated the same passion we have for our players and building new experiences that we believe players are looking for.”

In a meeting with IGN (opens in new tab) going along with today’s news, Hook anticipated Jar of Sparks’ launching title has to do with 3-4 years from launching. And while his work with jobs like Xbox Live as well as Destiny could elevate a couple of brows, Hook has actually verified that the workshop’s very first task will not be a real-time solution game because of the stress that type of things places on a tiny workshop in its early stage.

“[O]ne of the main challenges we all seem to struggle with is there’s only so much risk you can take on within a new studio,” Hook stated. “You’re forming a complete team with people who don’t know each other, have never worked with each other or brand new IP. Live service adds more complexity on top of that and I really think from my own experience for service driven games, the amount of work you need to do to make a live service work is pretty tremendous.”
