Avalanche Software Announcing New Title Soon

WB Games, Not The Rage Guys

A job listing for an Associate Lighting Technical Artist has popped up from Avalanche Software, also known as WB Games. Said job listing refers to an unannounced title which is supposedly being revealed soon. Speculation on this game’s identity is both wild and wide-ranging.

So far the dominant guess is a new Harry Potter game? It seems there was some footage recently leaked for a next-generation Harry Potter title, the timing of which lines up nicely with this job listing. Once again, this is not to be confused with plain old Avalanche, who made Rage 2. For more details, let’s look at that listing!

Avalanche Software, a WB Games studio, seeks a Lighting Technical Artist to work closely with a talented group of artists and engineers on an exciting, soon to be announced AAA title.

The Lighting Technical Artist will work closely with a team to create visually stunning lighting and ambiance for real world settings and will contribute to the overall aesthetic beauty of the game. The successful candidate will work to create and optimize UE4 light setups in addition to working with our proprietary time of day lighting system.

 

A quick look at the company’s history suggests they mostly cover licensed properties. Your Cars games, all things Disney, one Prince of Persia title. In other words, I don’t have a better guess than Harry Potter. Bring on that Hogwarts homework! Perhaps this time we’ll get the magical curriculum we’ve been waiting for.
