After ending the development of their VR projects, laying off almost 100 people, and closing two of its four offices, CCP Games is turning over a new leaf. That leaf happens to be a job listing looking for fresh blood to work on their "new and highly ambitious MMORPG".
"CCP is currently building a team in London to lead development on a new and highly ambitious MMORPG. We are looking to grow a relatively small, tight-knit team, capable of delivering big ideas through experience, smart process, and world-class tools" says .
Their ideal candidate has a "demonstrable track-record of leading design teams on multiple high-profile titles, and ideally experience of RPG gameplay and systems design development."
All serious applicants should have lead designer or design director credits on at least one "high-profile MMO, RPG, or other systems-heavy game," as well as "fantastic games knowledge (both classic and contemporary), especially in MMORPGs".
On top of everything, experience with the UE4 engine and blueprints is a real plus.
If you don't meet the criteria for a Lead Designer, there are some in the London studio. All job listings are presumably tied to the same project and include: art director, engineer, senior 3D artist, senior animator, senior backend engineer, senior character artist, senior UI artist, and UX designer.
The announcement follows Eve Online's recent transition to a hybrid free-to-play model. The transition has greatly expanded the range of ships available to its rank-and-file free players.
