PlayStation to buy Jade Raymond’s Haven Studios: Sony’s first developer in Canada
From GI.biz: "PlayStation has agreed to fully acquire Haven Studios, the development team led by Assassin's Creed, Star Wars and Google games veteran Jade Raymond.
It follows Sony's initial investment in the studio in March last year. Ever since, the team has been working on an exclusive new IP for PlayStation, which has now been revealed as a 'live service experience built upon a systemic and evolving world'.
The acquisition will mark Sony's first foray into the huge Canadian games development scene, which is responsible for some of the world's biggest AAA games. PlayStation joins the likes of Tencent, EA, Ubisoft, Microsoft, Nintendo, Warner Bros, Activision Blizzard, Take-Two, Square Enix and Sega, which all operate studios in the country."
