Last year it emerged that Forza Horizon developer Playground Games was opening a second studio, which would focus on developing a new open-world RPG. A bold move, to be sure, but will Playground be able to successfully veer away from the racing genre? There’s no such thing as a sure thing in the video game industry, but Playground is certainly hiring a lot of top-level talent.
According to a new report from GamesIndustry.biz, Playground is staffing up their new studio with recruits from BioWare, Rocksteady Games, Guerrilla Games, Ninja Theory, and EA Motive. In addition to those new hires, they’d already grabbed some devs from Rockstar Games and the Metal Gear Solid team.
