Playground Games, Forza Horizon, founder set to launch new studio

One of the Playground Games Co-founders, Gavin Raeburn, looks to be behind a brand new studio that's recruiting racing game development talent at a rapid pace.

Nice probably his first multiplatform game.

mkis007499d ago

After Activision, they have a very short rope with acquisitions. The only studios they could acquire would be indie or brand new.

That doesn’t make much sense . Leave MS to go back to being under MS. Doubt it but who knows

porkChop499d ago

After the excellent FH games I'm excited to see what he does next.

blackblades499d ago (Edited 499d ago )

I just want a good racing game of the likes of split-second. Something thats just crazy on that level and not you typical racing game. I guess a gimmick a good one or something idk.

Anunnaki499d ago

He must feel like he can finally breathe being out from under Microsoft's boot.

Jin_Sakai499d ago (Edited 499d ago )

Raeburn and Ralph Fulton sold Playground Games to Microsoft in 2018. So he lasted 5 years.

Anunnaki499d ago

The length of his non-compete perhaps.

Is the industry hurting for money or not?

Hofstaderman1d 7h ago

They belong to XBOX. Its a dog's life....

Chocoburger1d 7h ago

Nice thing they did, but not actually gaming related, not sure why this article was approved. Also strange informing us what game Rare worked on, as if we don't know their legacy.

Tacoboto1d 6h ago

Sorry you hate dog news - here's a game-related headline for you, the latest: "Deathsprint 66 is a hyperviolent freerunner that proves game journos suck at games | Video Gamer"

Yeah we need more headlines like *that* on this site, instead of news about a studio's employee perks.

GaboonViper1d 6h ago

Its actually nice to see a story like this instead of the usual doom and gloom but people still moan, anyhow hope these beautiful doggos have a great life.

Really nice story, kudos to Rare.

I went to look at new apartments and saw only dog parks, no kid parks. We're so screwed.

Damn was hoping for a fantasy setting. Looks futuristic

jznrpg1d 9h ago (Edited 1d 9h ago )

I think that’s a screensaver if you look to the right it looks more like a fantasy game and so does the concept art leaked earlier. Who knows though

phoenixwing11h ago

Unless that structure/pillar thingy in the right picture is long forgotten technology it's futuristic.

Name Last Name1d 10h ago (Edited 1d 10h ago )

Another shooter? Yawn. Thought the prevous concept looked more fantasy.

just_looken20h ago

With there same look on the right a arena setting this might be live service game #5 from sony

So a live service shooter like concord.....

StormSnooper19h ago

It looks like a fantasy game on the right screen. You are looking at a screensaver.

Goodguy011d 10h ago

Been looking forward to what they have next. Looks interesting.

Eonjay1d 10h ago

Really excited to see them release an original IP

GaboonViper1d 6h ago

Looks like my dream of them remaking Metal Gear Solid is over, still cant wait to see what they are cooking up.
