When it comes to big video game developers, you always want to try and expand as much as you can. The more people you bring in, the better your games can be. Or, the more games you can work on as you’ll have enough people for multiple teams. Some of the biggest developers out there have massive teams working around the world on titles. One of the most famous is Ubisoft, which literally has teams in countries all over the world. And now, they’re about to add Berlin to the list. Their first job? Far Cry.
Now, to be clear, it’s uncertain right now whether the team will be working on Far Cry 5, DLC for the title, or a brand new game in the franchise. But, we do know that they’re going to be working on the series itself. What’s more, we know that the game will be headed up by Istvan Tanjay, who has been working with Ubisoft in Germany for over 5 years, so they’re going to have some strong leadership here.
If you’re in the area, you should definitely consider applying for a position. There are numerous programming jobs, as well as some artist jobs. So if you’re interested, don’t hesitate to apply.
As for Far Cry, there’s been a lot of buzz about the game. The setting is something unique for the franchise, as it takes place in Montana. In fact, the team spent a lot of time in Montana to make sure they got the game perfect in regards to looks, ecosystem, and believability. What’s more, with the story being about a cult family, they went all out to create a cult-like atmosphere, including having cult songs sung by real people that’ll play over the game’s radio.
The game will arrive next year on Xbox One, PS4, and PC.
