The Ex-BioWare Developer Is Working on an Unreal Engine 4 Game
The former general manager of BioWare’s Edmonton-based studio will be leading a new Edmonton game development studio for the games company Improbable, according to a Friday announcement.
Improbable is the creator of SpatialOS, which is a “cloud platform for real-time multiplayer games”, according to the company’s official website.
“I was interested in making a game using SpatialOS from the very first time I spoke to Improbable,” the former BioWare manager, Aaryn Flynn, said. “Building tools and content has been a great way for our Edmonton team to master SpatialOS, but a full game was always an opportunity myself and others had in mind as the Edmonton studio took shape. Now, after a lot of great hires and great progress, we’re going to focus on creating that game using Unreal Engine 4 and building on SpatialOS’ next-generation online games platform.”
“We’ve grown fast but we’re still looking for additional team members in Engineering, Art, Design and QA to build out our team further,” he added. “As things progress, we’re excited to show you more in the future.”
Improbable also announced a new studio in London which will be headed by John Wasilczyk, a former executive producer at EA and Epic Games.
More info about Improbable’s recent foray into game development will be revealed at GDC 2019, which starts on March 18th.
