Halo Co-Creator and EA announce new study

Electronic Arts has announced that it will open a new study in Seattle led by Marcus Lehto, known for being the co-creator of the halo franchise and, more recently, president and director of Games of V1 Interactive. Lehto will be the director of the game in the new study, which apparently has no name yet, after the closing of V1 interactive earlier this year.

I am very excited to announce that I joined EA as a game director, building a new study in the Seattle area working on first-person games, said Lehto on social networks earlier this week. «I can not wait to share more about what we are creating !!»

It saddens us to inform them that V1 Interactive will be officially closed, said Lehto s former company in March. We want to thank all the talented people of V1, both from the past and the present, which helped that the last 5 years be wonderful. And a sincere thanks to the incredible community that supported us ».

The only launch of V1 Interactive, Sintegration , was launched in June 2020 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC through Steam and received a rather mediocre critical response. The writing was quickly on the wall for the title since a few months after the launch, it was announced that it would eliminate its multiplayer modes totally from the video game. That said, only because the last game that Lehto released did not do well does not necessarily mean anything for the command of him in EA.

At this point, you do not know what Lehto and Electronic Arts are working beyond the fact that it will be a first-person game of some kind. Given the history of Lehto, the probably bet is a shooter of some kind. You can check all our previous Electronic Arts coverage here.

What do you think that Electronic Arts starts another study in Seattle focused on the first-person games? Are you interested in seeing what Lehto is working on? Let us know in the comments or do not hesitate to contact me directly on Twitter in @rollinbishop to talk about everything related to the games.

The Cutey 'Stranded Sails' survival game arrives in October

The Mysterious Island (French: L'Mile mysterious) is a unique by Jules Verne, released in 1875. The original edition, released by Tetzel, includes a number of pictures by Jules Feat. The story is a crossover follow up to Verne's well-known Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Seas (1870) as well as Trying To Find the Castaways (1867-- 68), though its themes are greatly different from those books. An early draft of the novel, at first turned down by Verne's publisher and also entirely preconceived before publication, was labelled Shipwrecked Household: Marooned with Uncle Robinson, viewed as indicating the influence of the novels Robinson Crusoe and The Swiss Family Members Robinson. Verne developed a comparable theme in his later book, Godfrey Morgan (French: L'Cole DES Robinson's, 1882). The chronology of The Strange Island is totally incompatible with that of the initial Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea, whose story begins in 1866, while The Strange Island beg...

Sony depends on strange technique against Scalper, so you can buy a PS5

Currently Sony has probably an originality just how to make these people harder harder, however that's actually convincing result. Numerous consoles proceed to wind up in the hands of greedy scalders that wish to improve themselves to the resale. A vendor had actually loaded the PS5 behind a paywall, however that scalper was really excellent. If you intend to buy a PS5, currently has little luck. Because many consoles are currently not sold and also the declines are instead small. The decrease of Saturn was the ps5 and a calamity decline at Medimax was practically chaotic. Any person that wants to buy a PS5 must have best of luck or place on technical tricks. Sony currently has a new concept how to scale scalper life difficult. But it is suspicious how well this brand-new "trick" will function. A small sticker ought to make scalders tough to make life Sony has currently started dispersing a similar sticker label to merchants in Japan (through Gamerant.com). When se...

Townscaper presents new demo, executable from the browser

Oskar Saalberg has presented the new demo of Towns caper, his game / toy to create cities. You can not say that he does not put all the facilities: the demo can be executed from the browser itself, from oskarstalberg.com/townscaper. It is enough to enter that website to try the Instant Generator of Peoples of Saalberg, published in advance access last year and that came to its version 1.0, the first final, in August. The proposal of the game is simple: Ratoneando (using the mouse, I mean) you generate the map of a city that gets up with grace in front of your eyes, as if it did not cost a building, creating imaginary places to pleasure. There is no objective. It does not have a real gameplay. Only a lot of buildings and lots of beauty ». And the official description tries to put us in that mental place from which to let us carry drifting, a very good experience for those who get bored with the toys, but they grow up with the games, as my partner said Marta when he spoke about Towns...
