Team behind Black working on new FPS

Codemasters’ Guildford facility has been hard at work on a new action first-person shooter for a while now. The studio is comprised of many former EA Criterion, Sony, and Blackrock employees, and the team behind the new shooter is being headed by Stuart Black, previously co-creator and designer of Black. The game will employ Codemasters’ proprietary EGO engine, which has powered games like Race Driver: Grid, DiRT & DiRT 2, and Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising in the past.



The new IP, set to release on "leading console platforms", has been in full production for a year now, so it shouldn’t be long before we see an announcement from Codies. The Guildford studio is a massive one, housing a 450-strong staff. While much of that workforce is focussed squarely on this new IP, the studio’s general focus will be on churning out original new IP across the action genre.
