Formed at the start of the year, Sega Hardlight – the Japanese giant's UK studio in Solihull – is to shift away from handheld devices to make working on iOS, Android and Windows its priority.
That's according to Develop, which reports the developer has picked up former Codemasters man Sion Lenton to take charge of this new direction, delivering games that utilise Sega's existing IP as well as entirely fresh franchises.
Smart move
Lenton, who previously served as creative director of Codemasters' studio in Southam after a run as project director at Blitz Games, has been named as studio manager.
His first job appears to have been to put its previously announced active adventure title for PS Vita on hold until it determines the "best way to bring it to market."
"We have a huge box of toys to play with and we’ve only just begun to play with them," Lenton said of the newly refocused Hardlight.
"We are starting fairly small, leveraging Sega IP and as former console developers, learning about making games in the digital space. As you see our roadmap develop, you’ll see some more surprising & delighting uses of Sega IP, as well as original IP."
No set projects have been announced, but Hardlight – which has previously provided support on the likes of Sonic Unleashed, Empire: Total War, Bayonetta and Vanquish – currently employs a total of 21 full time staff, and is looking to deliver games on cycles of 4-8 months.
Sega Hardlight 公司是日本巨头世嘉(Sega)公司设立在英国索利哈尔的工作室。该工作室正在把工作重点从PSV转移到iOS,Android和Windows游戏的开发。
根据Develop, Sega 聘请了前Codemasters的Sion Lenton来负责领导该工作室,利用世嘉现有的游戏品牌来开发移动平台游戏。
他上任后的第一件事情就是把该工作室先前宣布登陆PS VITA平台的冒险游戏暂停了。
“我们有一大盒的玩具可供我们玩,而我们才刚刚开始。” Lenton 说道。
