For nylig afslørede Quantic Dream, udviklerne bag blandt andet Beyond: Two Souls og Heavy Rain, at de via en investering fra kinesiske NetEase nu har i sinde at udgive fremtidige titler på flere platforme, og ikke bare det, de har også i sinde at hyre masser af nyt talent ind.
Studiets seneste spil, Detroit: Become Human, lader samtidig til at klare sig ganske fortrinligt. Kort efter afsløringen blev instruktør og CEO David Cage interviewet af GamesBeat, og her afslørede han en ny milepæl, samt ambitiøse vækstplaner.
"Detroit is certainly a radical proposition for some people, but the most important thing for us was the amazing reception the game received from gamers, which has translated into our studio's biggest commercial success to date. Eight months following the release, we are closing in on 3 million units sold worldwide as an exclusive PS4 title. The game's commercial performance has been particularly noteworthy in Japan and across all Asia."
Takket være successen, og investeringen fra NetEase, der nu ejer andel i virksomheden, så skal studiet vokse betragteligt. Faktisk har de i sinde at hyre hele 100 ekstra medarbejdere.
"Yes, we are right now hiring across all disciplines, from production and programming to game design and art. We are looking for talented people who want to work on very ambitious projects. The team was around 200 people at the peak of Detroit, so our objective will be to reach around 300 people."
