Following Burnout, Need for Speed, and Star Wars, Criterion Games has now dedicated itself to developing a brand-new IP, as the developer announced. his job postings reveals.
The studio is seeking new and talented personnel to contribute to the creation of a combat game, considered its most ambitious project to date. With this AAA title, they aim to push the boundaries of what's possible and take a significant leap forward.
The requirements mention all types of combat, but especially melee combat; some experience with action-adventure games is considered advantageous, and open-world experience is also a plus. Furthermore, the game shouldn't follow traditional development paths simply because that's how it's always been done. According to Criterion, changing things is the key to success. The end result should be something great, with new ideas and innovative approaches.
What kind of game the new IP will actually be is, of course, purely speculation at this point. Based on the information available so far, it could be practically anything.
