Blizzard seeks staff to develop its new title
The company seeks positions related to level design for the game. In addition, they also have positions available in the art and engineering fields. Until now, not much else is known, but according to its description it is an AAA title. However, we will still have to wait for Blizzard to officially announce the game, trailer and all.
It is normal for these types of announcements to be made well in advance, and it is necessary to find the necessary talent to create a quality video game. After all, Blizzard has been having a pretty tough time when it comes to staff retention. Many workers have decided to leave the company due to the legal problems it faces, and with good reason. Let’s remember that Blizzard was accused of “discrimination and abuse“by any means possible.
The publication confirms that the title It is in development for PC and consoles. However, after Microsoft’s purchase of Blizzard, many have wondered if “console” stands for “entire console market”, or just Xbox Series X|S.
