Developers from companies such as Ubisoft, Ready At Dawn Studios, and Midgar Studio have banded together to form Atlantis Studio.
Based in the south of France, the new venture has been established as a privately funded game studio co-founded by Ru Weerasuriya and Nico Augusto. It said its focus was on building immersive games with Unreal Engine 5 for PC and console.
“Born from a shared passion for storytelling and emotional gameplay, the team is currently working on an exciting project that draws inspiration from rich narrative and aims to create powerful, heartfelt experiences for players,” the website said.
“We are thrilled to announce the creation of Atlantis Studio in the beautiful South of France region,” Weerasuriya, co-founder of Atlantis Studio, said in a statement (thanks, GamesBeat). “Our vision is to foster a creative and collaborative environment where experienced talent can come together to develop games driven by our common passions.”
Co-founder Augusto added: “The core team at Atlantis Studio is composed of exceptional and talented individuals. Together, we are looking forward to sharing with everyone the world we are crafting.”
The team is currently hiring.
