Polish video game developer People Can Fly is working on a new “Aaa shooter” with publisher Square Enix, the company revealed Wednesday while announcing the opening of two new European studios.
Pcf is known for action games like “Painkiller,” “Gears of War: Judgment,” and “Bulletstorm.” It was acquired by Epic Games in 2012 and rebranded itself as Epic Games Poland. It went independent again in 2015, reverting back to its original name and logo.
The new studios are based in Newcastle, UK and Rzeszow, Poland. Newcastle is the northern hub of game development in the UK, Pcf said, and it wants that team to grow to 20-30 developers within the next 12-18 months.
“Since People Can Fly became an independent studio again, our ambition has been to build a team of talented and experienced developers that can develop the best Aaa games,” People Can Fly CEO Sebastian Wojciechowski said in a statement.
