Das Jahr 2023 beginnt mit einer Studioneugr\u00fcndung: Ehemalige Entwickler von Playground Games, dem Studio hinter der Forza Horizon-Reihe, haben ihr eigenes Unternehmen Maverick Games gegr\u00fcndet.

Angef\u00fchrt wird das neue Entwicklerstudio von Mike Brown, dem Creative Director von Forza Horizon 5<\/a>. Ziel ist es, neue AAA-Spiele zu entwickeln, wovon sich eines bereits f\u00fcr PC und Konsolen in Arbeit befindet. Viele Details gibt es bislang aber noch nicht.

<\/p>

Von Playground zu Maverick Games<\/h2>

Maverick Games besteht vorwiegend aus ehemaligen Entwicklern von Playground Games. Neben Mike Brown sind das unter anderem noch Tom Butcher, ehemaliger Lead Producer bei Playground, und Matt Craven, dem fr\u00fcheren Technical Director beim Forza Horizon-Studio. Hinzu kommen noch Gareth Harwood, Fraser Strachan und Ben Penrose, die ebenfalls zuvor bei Playground Games t\u00e4tig waren.

Zus\u00e4tzlich mit an Bord sind Harinder Sangha, fr\u00fchere Co-Chefin von Sumo Digital Leamington und Elly Marshall, welche zuvor als Experience Design Director bei EA arbeitete. “Unser Ziel ist es, Maverick Games zu einem Studio zu machen, das die Leute lieben” f\u00fchrt Mike Brown in der Pressemitteilung aus.

Um das zu bewerkstelligen ben\u00f6tigt es nat\u00fcrlich neben talentierten Entwicklern auch entsprechendes Budget. Eine Startfinanzierung soll es schon gegeben haben und das Team ist bereits mit der Arbeit an einem “premium open-world game” besch\u00e4ftigt. Zugleich ist man auf der Suche nach neuen Mitarbeitern, um das Studio wachsen zu lassen. Interessierte k\u00f6nnen sich auf der Firmenwebseite<\/a> melden.

Wie geht es bei Playground weiter?<\/h2>

Trotz der namhaften Wechsel m\u00fcssen sich Fans bei Playground Games keine Sorgen machen. Das zu Microsoft geh\u00f6rende Studio ist derzeit mit mindestens zwei Projekten besch\u00e4ftigt. Zum einen sitzt man an der zweiten DLC-Erweiterung f\u00fcr Forza Horizon 5, die voraussichtlich im Fr\u00fchjahr 2023 angek\u00fcndigt wird.

Dar\u00fcber hinaus besch\u00e4ftigt sich ein zweites Team bei Playground Games mit der Entwicklung von Fable. Das Rollenspiel wurde zwar schon 2020 angek\u00fcndigt<\/a>, aber bislang gibt es noch keine wirklichen Informationen dazu. Der Grund daf\u00fcr ist, dass das Team erst etwas zeigen will, sobald man es fertiggestellt hat<\/a>.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
